Our Work
Shri Balaji Seva Samiti is a non-profit society raising support for festivals, welfare and self-reliance programmes across Kanpur. Our work spans six pillars — rooted equally in faith and in service.
Festivals & Culture
Every year, Shri Balaji Seva Samiti organises and manages Ganesh Mahotsav and Devi Jagran, along with katha, Bhagwat recitations, Raslila, shobha yatra, satsang, jagran, dangal and bhandara. These are not only acts of devotion — they bring the whole community together, regardless of background, and instil a shared sense of national unity, secularism and communal harmony.
Health & Medical Care
We organise free medical camps, conducted with the permission of health-department and government authorities, covering eye-care camps, family-planning awareness, polio-prevention drives, and maternal and child welfare guidance.
Relief & Rehabilitation
When disaster strikes, Shri Balaji Seva Samiti is on the ground — distributing food, medicine, clothing and other essentials free of cost to affected families, and staying engaged through their rehabilitation rather than leaving after the immediate crisis passes.
Care for the Vulnerable
We visit orphanages, widow ashrams and old-age homes on a regular basis, listening to residents and working to resolve the problems they face. In line with our founding objectives, we are also working toward establishing and operating our own free hospitals, orphanages, goshalas, widow ashrams, old-age homes, childcare homes and child-reform homes for the community.
Education & Empowerment
We work to move the poor, the disabled and the destitute toward self-reliance — through education, skill-building and ongoing support. A dedicated thread of this work is women's empowerment: creating awareness among women, encouraging financial independence, and giving women the same confidence and opportunity to take on any challenge that men are encouraged to take on.
Environment & Social Reform
Beyond direct welfare, the Samiti promotes and runs programmes for tree plantation and social forestry, water conservation, de-addiction, eradication of dowry and other harmful customs, pollution control and greening initiatives, reclamation of barren land and horticultural development, protection of animals, birds and wildlife, and family welfare and immunisation drives.
