Engage with us to create a positive and meaningful change in rural India.

IndiVillage Foundation is a Bangalore based non-profit organisation focused on community development in rural India. Our primary focus areas are Education, Gender Equality and Livelihoods. Our objective is to help children and youth in rural India lead better lives through continued opportunities in education and employment. We envision a world where rural communities are self-sufficient and thriving. Our programs are run independently by our Impact Team as well as in partnership with other local organisations to address need-based social challenges.

IndiVillage Foundation is focused towards the advancement of the UN SDGs and therefore all our programs are aligned with several of the global goals.
