Sukrupa is a 9 year old, registered non-profit charitable organization that addresses the socio-economic development of the disadvantaged in urban and rural Bangalore, India. The programs offered currently through Sukrupa include: Free Schooling, from Pre-school through Class 10 Youth Training in life skills, distant learning and college education Community and Rural Economic Development benefiting adults and families
Sukrupa Education Center The SUKRUPA Education Centre currently provides free schooling, nutritious food and basic health care for 450 children who thrive in a clean, safe, friendly and happy environment. The centre serves children of pre-school age (generally 2 1/2 years old through 5) as well as students in class 1 through 10. SUKRUPA Community Development Program Sukrupa's Community Development serves women and young adults in the community, in particular the parents and siblings of the children who attend the School Program at the SUKRUPA Education Centre. The Community Development Program offers health camps, family counselling, parenting and life skills training as well as vocational training. These components of the Sukrupa program provide a complete foundation for dignified employment and self-sufficiency. Consistent with all Sukrupa programs, the ultimate goal of this program is to provide a path out of the slums, to provide sustainable relocation to mainstream neighborhoods. For this program, Sukrupa collaborates with Jain Hospital and Baptist Hospital to address medical issues of the community. SUKRUPA Rural Development Program Addressing the challenges of rural poverty as the underlying cause for the formation of urban slums, SUKRUPA has established a pilot project with two villages in rural Bangalore, including an ongoing project offered in collaboration with Sai Trust. The Rural Development Program provides pre-school activities, supplementary education for government school children and vocational training for young adults and women. Future sources of revenue generation for the villages may include organic farming, dairy farming, and renewable energy.
