Om Shri Charitable Trust is a registered, independent, 100% volunteer-based charitable organization in India. It is headed by Yogiraj Dr. Swami Prakashanand Saraswati, Mahamandaleshwar. Who was born in 1950 in Jamshedpur (Tata).

His educational and professional background includes:

• Schooling and a Bachelor of Technology degree in Mechanical  Engineering.
• Ph.D. in Philosophy.
• Diploma in Yoga and Naturopathy.
• Disaster Management Certification.
• 200-hour Yoga Vedanta Teacher Training.

It is now being helped by local volunteers as well. Though the concept of reaching out to the weaker and needy sections of his surrounding area was noble cause, to implement the same with a vision and mission was not an easy task. Thus, there was a collective effort and initiative by family and sons, and also with help of like minded citizens and well wishers, a corpus fund was created through their donations and to set up an institution to provide health and education services.

The aim of the Trust is to develop Educational Programs, establish Nursing Homes / Hospitals and Temples etc. So that we can provide better opportunities for underprivileged children and people to make their experience of this world a joyous one.

We focus on:

  • Improving their formal education
  • Improving their physical well-being
  • Nurturing their natural creative abilities
  • Providing vocational training
  • To establish nursing Home/Hospital
  • Raising awareness for different issues and struggles in daily life

It is a grass roots organization which aims to provide the most disadvantaged children with education, supplemental nutrition and medical assistance. In doing so we strive to improve the quality of life for those highly vulnerable children.

Our aim is not only to look after the physical well being and education of the kids but also their consciousness. We want to raise their awareness so that they can not only heal themselves but also their families and society and be pillars of awareness for our world.

At last let us solemnly declare that the scope of our vision and mission is not limited to the areas described above, but it is a continuous process changing according to the needs and tastes of the time and we are committed to discharge our obligation and responsibilities towards the society by enabling the citizens to stand up on their own feet , sow the seeds of their choice, nature it with care and finally harvest the same and enjoy its fruits collectively in the long run.
