About us
A family that grew into a movement
Mera Parivar â "my family" â is a registered FCRA trust founded on 18 November 2006 in Gurugram, Haryana. We work with children, women, and youth in disadvantaged communities, because that is where lasting change begins.
Who we are
Nearly two decades of showing up
What began as local work with disadvantaged families in Gurugram now spans 7 states and 18 districts of India.
We provide humanitarian interventions in health, nutrition, water sanitation and hygiene (WASH), informal education, women empowerment, youth skill livelihoods training and placement, and advocacy. We also deliver CSR outreach and operational services as an implementation partner under the Companies Act.
Based at Rajiv Nagar near CRPF Camp Chowk in Gurugram, the organisation assists disadvantaged communities â children, youth, and women â with programmes that range from bridge schools and midday meals to vocational training and gender-equity work with adolescent boys.

Our mission
To empower and uplift communities through their children, women, and youth â providing education, professional skills, and personal development that build self-reliance and dignity.

Gurugram HQ
Rajiv Nagar, Gurugram, Haryana 122001
Across all of it, three groups anchor our work: children who need a way into education, women building independence, and youth preparing for livelihoods. Strengthen them, and the whole community rises.
How we work
Approach and values
Four principles run through every programme â from a meal served today to a career built over years.
Dignity first
Support is offered as partnership, never as charity that diminishes. Every programme protects the self-respect of the people it serves.
Self-reliance as the goal
Meals meet today's need; education, skills, and livelihoods end tomorrow's. Success is what communities no longer need from us.
Community-rooted
Programmes run inside the communities they serve â bridge schools in settlements, training at Rajiv Nagar, outreach across Delhi NCR.
Accountability
FCRA registered with MHA (18 Nov 2006), 12A and 80G certified, e-CSR registered with the MCA, with financial accounts published publicly.
