Knowing that their children are being looked after in safety in one of Seva Mandir's balwadis, many more women are now able to work to sustain their families
Schools, shiksha kendras, like this one in Jhadol, run by Seva Mandir, give children three years of education and try to make them motivated and able to cope when they move on to the government schools

Almost half the pupils at the Residential Learning Camps run by Seva Mandir are girls, and many of the teachers are women - vital for the future of India
At a routine health check at the Residential Learning Camp, the girl in the middle was found to have a cataract. Seva Mandir arranged for her to have this removed free of charge, thus saving her sight - hence the sunglasses.
