Empowering Women, Children & Rural Communities — Reaching Services to Unreached Areas across Karnataka since 2019.

Ganga Krishna Educational and Rural Development Trust (R) was founded in 2018–19 by a group of committed young professionals and social workers with a shared vision to make a meaningful impact in underserved communities across Karnataka.
For over 8 years, we have been actively working towards the holistic development of women and children in rural areas through social, educational, and skill development initiatives. Under the PM Vishwakarma Scheme, we have established three training centres and provided vocational skill training to nearly 5,000 beneficiaries.
To build a dedicated, service-minded team committed to enabling the holistic development of marginalised communities through innovative, replicable models — driven by a passion for excellence.
To build a society where marginalised individuals are empowered to become self-reliant through an equitable and integrated model of healthcare, education, and livelihoods — "Reaching Services to Unreached Areas."
