What We Do

Our focus area is rural India's sustainable livelihoods, and social and economic inclusion.
By giving young people the necessary skills, self-assurance, and job prospects, we prepare them for careers as employees and entrepreneurs.
Our goal is to incorporate post-secondary education that is linked with industry into mainstream education.

Why

We believe that everyone should have equal opportunity in society.

What

Our goal is to tear down the walls of inequality and depression and create sustainable lives.

How

By empowerment and education.

Who

For the underprivileged population.

“Before spending 16 years in the USA, I was born and brought up until my bachelor degree in India. I felt an internal urge to give back to the society that nurtured me financially and emotionally. Otherwise, I feel that I’m lacking some sense of fulfillment. However, it is hard to get directly involved in the community to give back while residing abroad and in the middle of a demanding life stage with work and family. Neither there is a platform that provides an efficient way to get involved in the community remotely nor does it provide transparency. Many of my friends are also in the same boat."
- Founder Joydeep Jana

What Problem Are We Solving?

13 million rural Indian youth enter the workforce each year until 2030.

• They have a 23% unemployment rate.

• 90% of them belong to a household with daily household earnings per person of less than two hundred rupees.

• Less than 3% of people have completed the official skill training needed for employment.

• Ten million youngsters between the ages of five and fourteen are employed in India now.

• 1.5 million girls under the age of eighteen get married annually.

How We Do It?

We are solving the livelihood problem in a unique way by bringing beneficiaries and donors to a single digital platform, and providing complete transparency during the beneficiary uplifting process.

Program model: one contributor to one recipient.

Complete transparency of the beneficiary's growth and success/failure to the contributor. 100% traceability of the donation.

To make the world a better place to live, we ask that you participate and become a member of the community.
To help the youth become employable, the Sadhana Vidhyamandir Foundation would require your assistance.
Become a contributor by spending USD 250 and/or your little time to help one beneficiary standing on his/her own two feet.

We believe -
As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way.”

Current Campaign

I can fly now

This is directed towards graduates with basic computer knowledge. With the help of our partners, we will ensure these youngsters get an intermediate or advanced computer training course so they can increase their employment chances, get better salaries, and help their family members come out of the shackles of poverty.

Tayyari naukri ki

We are bridging the digital divide with a computer training program currently going on in West Bengal. Anudip Foundation is aiding this education and empowerment via the computer training program for students from Antyoday Orphanage and a few more youngsters nearby. The Sadhana Vidyamandir Foundation is pleased to report that 50% of its students have found work thus far, and the remaining students are prepared for the workforce.
