Seva Mandir helps rural villagers come together to address the issues they face in their day-to-day lives. Village Development Committees collect and channel funds for the overall development of the village.
Local rural communities often have little access to government schemes and are left out of the development process. This keeps them backward and hinders their growth. In this environment, individual interests often take precedence over community interests.
Seva Mandir helps villages set up Village Development Committees to focus on the needs and entitlement of the poor and marginalized sections of the community. Currently we have 541 Village Development Committees helping about 50,000 people improve their lives. Forming Village Development Committees and funds gives villagers a forum to discuss their immediate problems and find tangible solutions. The Committees also bring villagers together and encourage a spirit of community and solidarity.
The communities will be self-reliant in managing their resources and addressing their problems. They will also gain greater bargaining power as they collaborate, negotiate and come up with solutions.
