Digital Saathi – Integrated Rural Empowerment & e-Access Initiative
Connecting Communities. Empowering Lives. Digitally.
Every ₹200 can change a life. Sponsor a child, a tree, a menstrual kit, or a CPR training session.
Project Summary
Digital inclusion is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity for equity, development, and dignity. In today’s India, rural and marginalized communities often lack access to digital public goods, financial services, educational tools, and healthcare information. Safe Hands Rehabilitation Society proposes a multi-service rural empowerment and e-access program called Digital Saathi, designed to create inclusive digital hubs in underserved areas. These hubs will serve as one-stop centers for government-to-citizen services, financial access, education, health services, and e-commerce—enabling last-mile service delivery with dignity and support.
