Our Philosophy
 

It is our belief that everyone has the potential to succeed in life, regardless of his or her socio-economic background. With the right education and support, one can build the knowledge and confidence within their self to achieve a good quality of life.

We believe that the capability of the families and the community to which an individual belongs also has an influence on the shaping of the individual. Highly educated and well-placed family and community members can raise the aspirations of future generations. They also act as mentorsand role models, and can provide the influence that is often required to help their community access services and a good standard of living. The absence of these influences has made a significant difference in career achievements in this poor community. The group of friends at Purkal will serve to fill this gap.

Our Yuva Shakti programme aims to provide holistic support to children and youth by providing access to quality education, mentoring and attention to nutrition and healthcare. The belief is that if youth in this rural community are provided a support mechanism that offers mentoring and resources for learning, they will have a newfound hope and succeed in acting as agents of transformational change in their society. Similarly, they will have the skill and confidence to accomplish professional excellence
that will benefit their families and future generations. We believe that professional success is necessary for the deprived to break out of their social deprivation. It is this access to professional oppurtunity that we must aspire for.

Our Stree Shakti programme aims to help families generate a second income and at the same time empower the women by bringing her a sense of pride, confidence and status. We are noticing that this is resulting in the generation of hope among the members of the family, leading to several additional changes such as the desire for a better quality of life, greater dedication, participation in community activities and an accent on values.
