Byrraju Foundation

Byrraju Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that focuses on improving the quality of life among the rural poor and under-privileged. Established in July 2001, it aims at building progressive self-reliant communities through adoption of a holistic approach and coordinated action.  These include promotion of rural initiatives, knowledge management and process transfer, and assistance in creation of "soft infrastructure" in areas such as healthcare, sanitation, primary education, adult literacy, skills development, safety and environment. The work of the Foundation currently benefits over 800,000 people in 150 villages spread across 5 districts of Andhra Pradesh (East Godavari, West Godavari, Krishna, Guntur and Ranga Reddy).
