Chinmoy foundation is Founded by CHINMOY DAVARA, Chinmoy foundation equips children, young, women, girls and oldage people in the all age group, with the skills and knowledge they need, to grow up and move out of poverty. This takes them from a childhood full of challenges to a life with meaningful livelihood. Since its inception, Chinmoy foundation has transformed the lives of children, young, women, girls and old age people, helping them move out of poverty.
Chinmoy foundation is a not-for-profit organization working in India, focusing on alleviating poverty and social injustice. We do this through well planned and comprehensive projects in health, education, livelihood and disaster preparedness and response. Our overall goal is the empowerment of women, girls, children and old age from poor and marginalized communities leading to improvement in their lives and livelihood.
Chinmoy foundation focuses on the empowerment of women and girls because they are disproportionately affected by poverty and discrimination; and suffers abuse and violations in the realization of their rights, entitlements and access and control over resources. Also, experience shows that, when equipped with the proper resources, women have the power to help whole families and entire communities overcome poverty, marginalization and social injustice.
By enabling children to complete secondary education, delay their age of marriage, and skilling young people to be in jobs, we are helping move a generation out of the vicious cycle of poverty.
