Which geographical areas do you cover?

Our projects and initiatives are global, with presence in several cities of India, USA, UK, Middle East, Africa and South East Asia. However, our primary areas of operation are Dharampur and Kaprada in the Valsad district of South Gujarat, which rank amongst the poorest in the country.
