Today a glance over the past years is filled with a magical mixture of satisfaction for yesterday & expectations for tomorrow

Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan, since decade and a half working for social transformation wherein the marginalized & deprived sections of community are socially, economically and politically empowered to lead life of security, dignity, and prosperity. Prolonged handholding support to the target community through awareness and capacity building has resulted into strengthened people organizations in terms of information, knowledge and leadership. People movements' enormous diligence in the process initiated by Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan is inevitable factor in the present accomplishments of Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan.

Livelihood of the deprived sections is one of the serious issues being handled by Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan. We can see many facets of the single issue. Availability & ownership of the resources is biggest challenge while working on the livelihood enhancement. Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan, with people & people organizations, is looking for the alternatives to rise from the situation. Conserving good traditions, breaking harmful customs, application of science and technology are some of the ways leading to socio-political development of the villages.

Strengthening political and women citizen leadership is another domain with model impact for Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan.

This activity is like a diamond cutting; making the women aware about their own strengths and qualities is the first step.Once this stage is achieved, the actual field intervention of women starts with the handholding support by Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan. Here, challenging the existing political interest groups & their set ups is not an easy intervention; but we are proud to say that our women development committees and block level Mahila Sangh are effectively handling the socio-political aspects of the villages while leading themselves towards achieving of their dreams.

Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan believes in bottom up and participatory planning. Based on this belief, Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan has developed a model methodology to prepare a village development plan considering village as a unit of development. These plans are prepared by bringing together all sections in the village. In the planning process, needs along with their priorities as well as resources available in and out of the village are identified. These village development plans are then forwarded to the line departments with villagers' remarks on loan distribution, schemes & subsidies. Quite an exemplary effort & needs to be scaled up to the region - state & national level!

Decades of activities by Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan in fields as diverse as governance, livelihood enhancement, environment protection and women empowerment has built a confidence among village fraternity. Hence, Subhvinayak Seva Sansthan feels the need to institute Human Resource Centre, emerged from our analysis of the environment and its changing context, especially with liberalization, privatization and globalization. The need is also being felt to build capacities of civil society to effectively relate with the changing realities. In near future, Human Resource Development Centre would definitely become the pioneer training institute for the grassroots as well as community leaders.

Join us in working towards our dream of seeing a poverty-free India within our lifetimes!

Give and its partners were born to bridge the gap between the people who want to make a difference through giving back and those who are doing phenomenal work but need more support. Our focus has been to build trust for the social sector by strong due diligence of all our nonprofit partners, and transparency on how donations impacted lives on the ground.

We are proud to have played a small role in enabling giving across all segments of our society - everyday givers, (U)HNI givers, corporates and foundations. Over the last 20 years, we have enabled giving through marathons, galas, giving pledges, payroll giving, crowdfunding, philanthropy consulting, CSR grant management, collective giving, disaster response etc.

We will continue to stay tuned to the needs on the ground, innovate for scale, and find ways of inspiring every person who can to give back. India is a country that is rich in so many resources. There is no reason for 300 million citizens to continue to live below the poverty line.
