NGO work is important because it uplifts vulnerable communities, bridges social gaps, and ensures access to education, healthcare, and dignity for those who are often overlooked.

S.K.R. Pupils Welfare Society, founded in 1999 in Andhra Pradesh, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the welfare and empowerment of differently-abled individuals—especially children with intellectual disabilities and hearing impairments. The society operates the S.K.R. Manasika Vikas Kendram & Deaf School, providing specialized education, rehabilitation, and holistic care, and is recognized by the Government of Andhra Pradesh and the National Trust. Over the years, SKR has expanded its work to address the wider needs of marginalized communities through programs in health, women empowerment, livelihoods, sustainable agriculture, environmental conservation, and child rights. Blending compassion with professional service delivery, the organization ensures dignity, inclusion, and opportunity for children and families who face social and economic barriers. Today, SKR stands as a trusted institution committed to building independent, confident, and capable individuals while promoting inclusive development across rural and urban regions of the state.
