Five objectives that guide
every programme we run.
SURAJE exists to make people aware of their legal rights, organise the down‑trodden — especially women — into Self Help Groups and federations, and build the capacity of communities to act for themselves.
Legal Awareness & Empowerment
Helping people know their rights and the morality to live a quality life, achieving genuine personal empowerment.
Community Organisation
Organising neglected people, especially women, into SHGs and JLGs, building clusters and federations.
Education & Capacity Building
Equipping organised communities to struggle and act toward a self‑reliant, self‑governed society.
What we work toward, every single day.
Our Vision
Formation of a Self Governed, Self Reliant, Healthy, Literate & Peaceful Society.
Our Mission
To invigorate and upgrade the neglected and down‑trodden through awareness generation, organisation, education and direct intervention — raising their social, economic, cultural, physical and moral status so that none is left out of nation‑building.
An approach built on people,
not paperwork.
Four principles run through every SURAJE programme, from a village Self Help Group meeting to a state‑level partnership.
Client‑Centred Focus
Understanding the client's reality first, and designing every intervention around it.
Operational Efficiency
Better automation of systems and process for higher efficiency and transparency.
Poverty Alleviation
Economic development that targets the root causes of rural poverty.
Financial Inclusion
Channelising funds from institutions and donors as collateral‑free loans to SHGs.
Four dimensions. One vision
of an equal society.
Good Governance
Transparent, accountable, community‑led decision making at every level of our work.
Quality Education
Equal, quality education for every child — especially the girls being left behind today.
Equal & Quality Health
Healthcare access for all, delivered through community‑based outreach.
Eco‑Friendly Livelihood
Sustainable, environmentally sound routes out of poverty for rural households.
“More than 90% of girls in our operating area were out of school. That single number is why SURAJE exists.”
