About Us

An introduction to Nari Shakti Samaj Sevi Samathan

Our Story

Nari Shakti Samaj Sevi Samathan began with a simple belief: when a woman moves forward, her whole family and society move forward with her.

In the villages of District Ferozepur, many women want to work, learn and support their families, but lack the skills, the information or a helping hand at the right time. The society was started in 2024 to be that helping hand.

Our way of working is personal. President Runa Rajput and the team go to the villages themselves, sit with the women, listen to their problems and then act on them, whether that means ration for a family in need, an effort towards a stitching centre so women can earn, or guidance on the government schemes meant for them.

Women of all ages sit in a circle in a sunlit courtyard, listening closely to a young woman speak; several are taking notes.

Vision

A society where every woman stands on her own feet and lives with dignity.

Mission

To make the women and girls of District Ferozepur self-reliant through skills, education, health awareness and access to government schemes, and to stand by families in need.
