Bengaluru is known as India’s Silicon Valley — a city of culture and opportunity. But beyond the tech parks and startups, Bengaluru is also home to hundreds of NGOs working tirelessly to support vulnerable communities.
At Aashritha Charitable Trust, we believe in celebrating and learning from such impactful work. Highlighting these NGOs helps donors, volunteers, and well-wishers understand how their support contributes to a stronger, more compassionate society.
