Sewa hi Paramo Dharmah "Sewa is the highest form of Dharma" - mantra for Sewa International that explains the resolve.

The resolve will be unattained without a befitting establishment and infrastructure. Since the inception of the very idea of Sewa International, this had been the dream for many activists spread across all the continents, drawn from various countries.

Poverty, underdevelopment on one hand while uncontrolled exploitation of the natural resources and lop-sided development, on the other, have emerged as the genuine challenges before humanity as the world moves faster towards Globalization.

India with its diversity and plurality, culture and tradition, based on ancient and time tested Hindu philosophy, has a key role in seeking the most viable answer to the challenges before the humanity for a bright future.

Sewa International, an organization firmly embeded in the knowledge and wisdom of this land called India, is most willing to spread the message of voluntary service to the whole of human society.

To quote one of the greatest sages of the last century Swami Vivekananda will be most appropriate here - "The poor, illeterate, the ignorant, the afflicted, - let these be your God. Know that service to these people alone is the highest religion".

The movement, Sewa International, started in UK with some young men & women joining hands to help the earthquake victims of Latur, Maharastra state, India in 1991. Since then, the movement has spread over to 15 countries.

Registered as a Trust in the year 1997 in India and since then it has been in the forefront to serve the weaker sections of the society in India.

Students and youth, volunteers and the retired personnel, intending to reach the project of their choice to serve personally, can reach their destination. Immense satisfaction they would earn, obviously.

80 kinds of voluntary projects, through some 700 odd organizations and groups are in the loop from all the continents. Join one and talk to all, know about all, reach out to all. That is the hub called Sewa International.
