Sri JanaJagarana Trust fosters strong relationships with communities through active engagement, including meetings, workshops, and outreach programs. By collaborating with community members, we align our efforts with their needs and improve our programs for greater impact.
We use a data-driven approach to measure our programs’ effectiveness, tracking participation, outcomes, and community satisfaction. This helps us assess progress, improve where needed, and ensure efficient use of resources. Our impact assessment findings are shared with stakeholders to foster transparency, trust, and accountability.
Collaboration is essential to addressing complex social challenges. We partner with like-minded organizations, government agencies, and individuals to pool resources and expertise for greater impact. These partnerships expand our reach, share knowledge, and secure additional funding, helping us create a stronger support network and achieve sustainable change.
Shri Jana Jagarana Trust is a non-profit, non-government organization committed to the comprehensive development of individuals and communities, focusing on empowering marginalized and underserved populations. Founded with the mission to foster positive change, the Trust works tirelessly to promote education, sustainable development, and social justice.
Our initiatives are rooted in the belief that education is a fundamental human right and a powerful tool for breaking the cycle of poverty. Through various educational programs and skill development workshops, we aim to ensure that every individual, regardless of background, has access to quality education and opportunities for personal growth.
In addition to education, Shri Jana Jagarana Trust is dedicated to sustainable development, promoting environmentally conscious practices and livelihoods that respect both people and the planet. We work with local communities to implement sustainable agricultural practices, support green energy solutions, and develop eco-friendly initiatives that enhance economic self-sufficiency.
At the core of our mission is social justice. We advocate for the rights of marginalized communities, support initiatives that promote gender equality, and work to eliminate discrimination in all its forms. By creating platforms for dialogue and action, we aim to build a just and equitable society where every individual can thrive.
Through partnerships with local governments, NGOs, and community stakeholders, Shri Jana Jagarana Trust implements a wide range of programs designed to uplift communities and drive systemic change. Our holistic approach focuses on providing not only immediate relief but also long-term solutions that empower individuals to shape their futures.
We are driven by the vision of a world where equality, justice, and opportunity are accessible to all, and we are committed to continuing our efforts to make this vision a reality.
Shri Jana Jagarana Trust operates across India, with a primary focus on Karnataka.
Based in Mysuru, Karnataka, the Trust is deeply rooted in the local communities of the state. Our work spans rural and urban areas alike, addressing the specific needs of different regions.
While Karnataka remains our core operational area, we extend our programs and services across India, working to create lasting change in regions that need it the most. By tailoring our efforts to local contexts, we ensure our initiatives in education, sustainable development, and social justice are impactful and meaningful.
Shri Jana Jagarana Trust receives funding from a diverse range of sources, which allows us to sustain and scale our impact across various communities in Karnataka and throughout India. These funding streams enable us to carry out our mission of promoting education, sustainable development, and social justice. Here’s a more detailed breakdown of the key sources of support:
1. Individual Donations:
Generous contributions from individuals like you form the backbone of our funding. These donations empower us to implement programs that address critical issues such as education, poverty alleviation, and community development. Individual donations give us the flexibility to respond quickly to urgent needs and sustain long-term initiatives. Whether through one-time gifts or recurring contributions, individual donors play a crucial role in helping us reach underserved populations and drive lasting change. The impact of these donations is directly felt in the communities we serve, making a tangible difference in the lives of many.
2. Corporate Sponsorships:
Partnerships with corporations are vital in expanding the scope of our work. These sponsorships not only provide financial resources but also open the door to collaborative opportunities. Corporate partners often support specific projects or campaigns aligned with their corporate social responsibility (CSR) goals. Through these partnerships, we can access resources, expertise, and networks that enhance our ability to implement large-scale programs. In return, our corporate sponsors gain visibility and the opportunity to engage in meaningful social impact. Together, we create a synergy that amplifies our reach and effectiveness in addressing key social issues.
3. Government Grants:
Grants from government agencies are another significant source of funding for Shri Jana Jagarana Trust. These grants allow us to execute programs that align with national and regional development goals, particularly in areas such as education, health, rural development, and environmental conservation. By partnering with government bodies, we ensure that our work complements existing policies and contributes to the broader social welfare framework. Government support helps us scale initiatives that might otherwise be limited in scope, ensuring that more people in underserved areas can benefit from our services.
4. Foundations:
Philanthropic foundations provide essential financial assistance, enabling us to sustain our mission and launch new initiatives. These foundations, whether large international entities or local philanthropic organizations, support us through grants and strategic partnerships. Foundation funding often focuses on specific thematic areas such as education, women’s empowerment, or environmental sustainability, allowing us to deepen our expertise in these fields. This backing also gives us the ability to innovate, experiment with new approaches, and take calculated risks to enhance our impact on the ground.
Through this diverse and robust funding ecosystem, Shri Jana Jagarana Trust is able to continue its work toward creating a more equitable, educated, and sustainable society across Karnataka and India. Each of these funding sources plays an essential role in enabling us to serve communities and drive positive, lasting change.
Shri Jana Jagarana Trust places a strong emphasis on transparency and accountability in every aspect of its operations. As a non-profit organization committed to driving meaningful change, we understand the importance of maintaining the trust of our donors, partners, and the communities we serve. To uphold this trust, we implement several measures that ensure our work is both effective and responsible.
1. Financial Transparency:
We believe that donors and supporters deserve to know exactly how their contributions are being used. To maintain financial transparency, Shri Jana Jagarana Trust regularly publishes detailed financial reports, including annual audits and breakdowns of expenditures.

We adhere to best practices in financial management, complying with Indian accounting standards and guidelines to maintain the integrity of our financial operations.

These assessments help us measure the outcomes of our interventions in areas such as education, sustainable development, and social justice. By tracking our progress against specific goals and indicators, we can clearly demonstrate the tangible results of our initiatives, ensuring that donations are being used to make a positive difference in the communities we serve.
3. Independent Audits and Compliance:
To further reinforce accountability, we undergo regular independent audits by qualified external auditors. These audits verify that our financial statements are accurate and that our financial practices are in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations, including those related to donations, grants, and expenditures. We also comply with government requirements and adhere to the guidelines set forth by regulatory bodies, such as the Income Tax Department, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, and the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA) where applicable.

We believe in fostering an open dialogue with the public and all stakeholders. Shri Jana Jagarana Trust actively encourages feedback and inquiries from our supporters, partners, and the broader community.

Our governance structure ensures that the Trust operates with the highest ethical standards. We have a dedicated Board of Trustees and leadership team responsible for overseeing our operations, ensuring that we remain aligned with our mission, values, and goals.

By sharing this information, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of how we operate and the impact we are creating, fostering a culture of openness and trust.
7. Legal Compliance:
We strictly adhere to all legal requirements and regulations governing non-profit organizations in India. This includes complying with the rules around taxation, foreign contributions, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) partnerships. Our commitment to legal compliance not only reinforces our accountability but also ensures that we continue to operate effectively and maintain our eligibility for funding and partnerships with government agencies, corporations, and philanthropic foundations.
Through these measures, Shri Jana Jagarana Trust ensures that it remains accountable to all stakeholders—donors, partners, beneficiaries, and the broader public.
