Gandhigram

Everyone needs to have a hand in volunteering, service and support towards uplifting the underprivileged section of the society. However, contributing to a cause need not be dull or colourless. Gandhigram Khadi focuses on enhancing the socio-economic status of rural people by helping them craft attractive nature-based and indigenous products, like fabrics, foods, personal care solutions, etc., and promoting these products in the urban community, so that those who favour such products and buy them end up contributing to our cause. At the end of the day, everyone benefits. The idea of Gandhigram was born to take forward the vision of empowering villages and enabling their holistic development. The organisation was the brainchild of Dr. TS. Soundaram and Dr. G. Ramachandran who were ardent followers of Gandhi and worked to incorporate his values in their work. Functioning from Dindugal but with our impact felt across the southern states as of 2022, we hope to continue our endeavour in the coming years and help more urbanites support rural upliftment.
