Educate Enshrine Empower
As a trusted NGO in India, The Kalgidhar Society – Baru Sahib works towards long-term, sustainable transformation in communities by addressing the root causes of their problems. Social change is a constant and complex process. It calls for a slow, gradual and long-term effort backed by a strong policy framework, as it involves changing traditions and customs. The programs led by The Kalgidhar Society – Baru Sahib span several areas of work, with a special focus on education and the empowerment of women. Here is a brief overview of these areas.
Rural
Education
The program promotes value-based quality education and spiritual uplift for underprivileged rural communities in far-flung areas of North India. Through our Akal Academies, we aim to build some of the best rural education schools in India, and we have supported more than 75,000 rural children so far.
130 Rural Academies | Universities
Women
Empowerment
In a society where people are indulging in female, The Kalgidhar Society is laying a great emphasis on empowering women, especially those who are destitute or in vulnerable situations. It is ensured that women receive equal opportunity in all programs of the society, and various interventions have been designed specifically for women and girls, such as teacher training program, skill development program, higher education courses etc.

Care
Kalgidhar Society believes in giving back to the community. The Society runs various programs which provide state-of-the-art healthcare facilities to people from rural communities who cannot access high-quality healthcare services. Moreover, to address the root causes of various evils in the community, the Society also runs three rehabilitation centers for drug and alcohol patients.
