Help us reach our goal!

Because of your generous support, The Kalgidhar Society has established 121 schools in rural areas benefitting 60,000 underprivileged rural children to provide education virtually at their doorstep. Due to high moral values being taught at the institutes, each student impacts about 35 people in its vicinity.

Help us reach our goal of opening 150 schools in the next few years wherein students can attain privileged value-based education and motivate millions of people to follow the path of Divine peace and universal brotherhood.

Please give back, so that
The Kalgidhar Society
can keep serving...
