Vrindavan, The Sacred Land of India

Vrindavan, India, the childhood home of Lord Sri Krishna, is globally renowned as one of the most sacred places on the planet and the home to thousands of temples and historically holy sites.

Yet thousands of Vrindavan's people suffer extreme
poverty, and 20,000 are widowed women, the largest community of widows in the world.

We believe in empowering Vrindavan's people while protecting its sacred land and water.

 

Supporting the Widows
of Vrindavan


Home to over 20,000 widows, Vrindavan has become the city of widows and a sanctuary for India's women after the death of their husbands. Considered inauspicious or cursed by society, widows are often forced from their homes and travel thousands of miles to reach Vrindavan in hopes of a brighter life.
 

We're on a mission to offer a brighter life.

 


For over a decade, we've empowered widows to make a difference in their lives and communities. Together, we are preserving historic heritage sites, protecting sacred land and water, offering meals to those in need, and showing by example the powerful contributions a widowed woman can make if only given the opportunity.
