SEESHA

SEESHA (Samiti for Education, Environment, Social and Health Action) is a non-profit organization empowering underprivileged communities across India.
(1)

Founded in the year 2003 by renowned philanthropist Dr. Paul Dhinakaran, SEESHA was originally started as a charity organisation. As the vision began to grow, its reach also widened to address the cause of downtrodden communities across India. Over the years, SEESHA’s approach has altered from charity to welfare and from welfare to holistic community development. Steadily growing into an entity of professionalism and experience, SEESHA now adopts villages in some of the poorest regions in India, working towards their holistic development. With a four-fold view of development, we focus on areas of Education, Health, Environment and Livelihood among the people we work with. Our target groups include children, youth, women, senior citizens, communities, differently-abled, persons in need of physiological and psychological care and victims of natural disasters.

*Hold Their Hands. Heal Their Hearts.*

An elder lives alone, without the support of their family. No one to care. No one to call their own.

At SEESHA's Old Age Care Home, we see this reality often. We see the silence in their eyes — and we choose to fill it with warmth, dignity, and love. Every elder in our care receives assisted living, nourishing meals, and compassionate geriatric support. Because we believe no one should spend their final years forgotten.

But we cannot do this alone. Your kind-hearted support can make a huge difference in their lives.
* ₹15,000/month — Full care for 1 destitute elder
* ₹60,000/month — Care & comfort for 4 elders
* ₹1,00,000/month — Dignity & hope for 7 elders

Every monthly pledge donor receives a custom SEESHA wristband, engraved with 'Hold their hands, heal their hearts' — couriered to your door.

*More Than a Job — A New Life!*

Poverty and social barriers leave many Indian women trapped in low-paying daily wage jobs due to limited education and skills. SEESHA is changing that.
Through vocational training in Tailoring, Aariwork, Jute Products Making, and more — we equip women with hands-on skills to launch their own businesses. As a result, we are raising empowered entrepreneurs who are uplifting their families and communities.

Transforming Lives Through Skill Training – SEESHA.

At SEESHA Skill Training Centres, we witness inspiring transformations every day.

Mrs. Kanchana from Ammapettai joined our free tailoring course with no prior experience.
Within just two months, she began stitching her own blouses and is now confidently taking customer orders.

Ms. Ramzan Begum, daughter of a daily wage laborer, enrolled to ease her family’s financial burden. Today, she stitches blouses, frocks, and kurtis — and has started earning independently.

Through patient guidance and hands-on training, our dedicated trainers build both skill and self-confidence.

These stories reflect the true impact of empowerment through skill development.
