Home / Cause / JAGRITI – Upliftment of Women And Children

A woman is the creator of this beautiful world and we make sure that she gets a respectful life. Our organisation is dedicated to working for the overall improvement of girls including education, sanitation, health, income generation, AIDS awareness and other major issues. We make the underprivileged girl children capable so that they can compete and come at-par with this fast growing community. Girl gives a shape to this civilisation; hence, our NGO works hard to provide better health, education and shelter to them. We have a team of teachers, medical practitioners and other volunteers, who wholeheartedly work for the betterment of deprived girls. We also focus on providing proper medical facilities to the children. With the assistance of the volunteers, we have been able to arrange the basic necessities for the girls. Our team members work to stop exploitation against girl child and children in general. We work as a team for the betterment of impoverished children.
