Why Donate to RDFT?

Your support powers hope, healing, and opportunity in the heart of rural India.

Rural Development Friends Trust is a non-profit organization committed to bringing lasting change to underserved villages. Here’s how your donation helps:

Education for Underprivileged Children

Millions of children in rural India lack access to basic education. Your donation helps us provide school supplies, tuition support, and learning environments where children can grow, dream, and thrive — giving them a chance at a brighter future.

Free Medical Camps and Health Awareness

In areas where healthcare is a luxury, we bring it to their doorstep. Your contribution supports regular medical check-ups, distribution of medicines, and awareness programs on hygiene, nutrition, and disease prevention — saving lives in places that need it most.

Skill Development for Youth and Women

Empowerment begins with opportunity. We offer training in tailoring, farming, digital literacy, and small-scale entrepreneurship to rural youth and women, helping them build confidence, earn a livelihood, and break the cycle of poverty.

Sustainable Rural Empowerment Initiatives

From building water tanks to supporting self-help groups, we invest in solutions that create self-sufficient communities. Your support helps us promote agriculture, clean energy, and local infrastructure that ensures long-term rural progress.
