Kriya's Mission

Our Mission

Kriya is a Sanskrit term that refers to a series of actions completed to attain a specific goal. We want to bring this philosophy of drive and initiative into our work with women in developing nations. Women in third world countries experience inherent disadvantages and adversity, making them a vulnerable population within their own countries. We want to see a world where all women have an equal opportunity to achieve their fullest potential as celebrated individuals. Women form the backbone of our society and Kriya hopes to provide a platform to empower them.

Our Vision

We’re committed to changing lives by empowering underprivileged women in India. Through advocacy, empowerment, and education, we’re breaking down systemic barriers and creating a brighter future for all. Join us in making a difference and transforming the world, one woman at a time.

Kriya's Values

Our Values

Kriya is driven by the firm belief that every woman should have the opportunity to lead a fulfilling life, and our work reflects this deep-seated conviction. To achieve our mission, we abide by the following guiding principles:

Transparency

We believe in complete transparency in all our activities, especially when it comes to the use of donations. Our website features detailed information about all current projects, ensuring that donors can see precisely how their contributions are making a tangible difference.

Compassion

At Kriya, our work is motivated by compassion, empathy, and a deep desire to help others. We are committed to serving those who need our help the most, and our focus will always be on providing them with the support they require.

Teamwork

We recognize that lasting change can only be achieved through collective effort, which is why teamwork is one of our core values. With the support of our dedicated team members and generous donors, we are able to work collaboratively towards achieving our shared goals.
