Raj Uphaar is an initiative of Shrimad Rajchandra Love and Care, the charitable arm of Shrimad Rajchandra Mission Dharampur.
Raj Uphaar supports over 150 underprivileged tribal women and their families in their quest towards attaining self-reliance and a respectable source of income. We offer them end-to-end support by providing employment opportunities, skill training, raw material and equipment, safe workplaces, as well as product marketing and distribution. These talented and dedicated women produce more than 100 desserts, snacks, fragrances and utility products for your home. When you empower a woman, you impact a whole family positively.

Tales of Transformation
Each of these tribal women has a story to tell.
Some are sole breadwinners of a large, multi-generational family while others are raising their children alone. Some need to supplement their husband’s income to improve their quality of life while others are victims of domestic abuse.
All of them have one thing in common - they seek self-reliance and a respectable source of income.
