Manavata Ashram

Manavata is a worldwide (registered charity in India, UK and USA),, voluntary, non profitable and non religious organization working for the development of the Society. It is run by a large group of service minded people. 'Manavata' derives its name from Sanskrit for 'Humanity'. It is being moulded as a common platform for many enthusiastic youth and social service organizations, spread across continents, to share and interact in the field of service to the humanity. Manavata acts as a facilitator and dialogue partner with regard to co-operation among the volunteers and member organizations in carrying out social activities addressed to the benefit of community and deserving individuals.
