Illuminating Lives, Bringing Hope

Ujaala, which means 'light' in Hindi, is a project that aims to brighten the lives of the communities we serve. We stand by them during their darkest times, offering support when they need it most.

Initially launched in response to the crisis of 'covid orphans,' who were left vulnerable due to the overwhelming number of individuals in need, this project now extends its assistance to any person from underserved communities requiring help. We believe that no one should be left behind, especially those facing the hardships of domestic abuse, rape, or abandonment.

Our mission is to be a beacon of hope for those who have fallen through the cracks of the system. We provide assistance and support when official channels may take time to respond. Our dedicated team is committed to helping individuals in need, ensuring they receive the care and attention they deserve.

NaariSamata remains steadfast in its commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of underserved communities. Together, we can illuminate the path towards a brighter future, offering solace and support to those who need it most.

Child marriage is a prevalent issue in underdeveloped states like Jharkhand in India. Shockingly, nearly 38% of girls in Jharkhand are married off before they reach the age of 18, an age when they should be attending school, enjoying their childhood, and pursuing their dreams.

“India lives in the villages.” – Mahatma Gandhi

India’s true growth can only happen if its rural villages grow, as nearly 70% of the population still lives in 600,000 villages. While urban India has seen significant development in the last three decades, rural areas still face poverty, low literacy rates, and a lack of basic infrastructure such as schools and hospitals. These issues increase social problems such as domestic violence, substance abuse, and alcoholism. The youth is migrating to urban areas in search of new opportunities, further exacerbating these issues.

We started our project by talking to the women of the village to know what their main concerns were. They came up our first project… The recommissioning of toilets at the primary school. The toilets were in a disused state and had been non-functional for sometime due to lack of water supply to the school. The children used the nearby fields when needed.
