About us

Raise your helping hand.

Gramin Vikas Samiti was formed on 16 June 1992 and registered under the Society Registration Act.

GVS has always made an attempt to ensure the right to justice, peace, development and freedom from caste, class and gender-based discrimination. We have worked for a society in which the poor have control over their nature and livelihood resources, where people coexist with nature, equality prevails, and citizens hold strong moral values.

Our intervention areas are the remote regions of Damoh, Panna, Sagar and Chhatarpur districts of the Bundelkhand region. Priorities are decided keeping in mind the communities we serve — tribal, dalit and backward families.

Our Mission

We aspire to build a strong society by connecting the poor, weaker, marginalised, deprived and vulnerable sections of rural areas with government health-related schemes and services, making education accessible to children, preserving and promoting people's art and culture, building community capacity through women and youth empowerment, and assisting farmers to adopt farm-mechanized and organic techniques of farming.

Our Vision

We envision a society in which the poor, weak, marginalized and vulnerable sections — especially tribals, dalits, backward communities, women and children of rural areas — have equal rights, social justice, peace, respect, security and dignity in their lives, free from discrimination and with access to better health, education and livelihood opportunities.
