Neersa Foundation draws its name from the word "Neer", meaning water—gentle, pure, and free-flowing. Just as water nourishes life and quenches thirst without asking anything in return, Neersa flows into the lives of those who are often forgotten—bringing comfort, care, and hope.
We are a grassroots initiative dedicated to supporting the underprivileged, especially marginalized women and children, who struggle each day for the most basic necessities of life. From distributing food, clothes, and sanitary pads, to counselling, skill-building, and education, our mission is to restore dignity and spark opportunity.
At Neersa, we believe that joy is a right, not a privilege. Whether it's celebrating a festival or lighting up a birthday with cake and sweets, we strive to bring moments of happiness into the toughest corners of our society—reminding every soul that they matter.
Our work flows silently, but it carries the powerful intention of creating a more compassionate, just, and inclusive world—where everyone, regardless of their circumstances, can live with dignity and dream without limits.
