Tribal Heritage & Culture Research
Authentic research based, unbiased understanding of our tribal heritage & culture.
We wish to provide an unaltered view of the realities of our tribal cultures & lifestyles that often contradicts with what’s in curriculum or the media.
Building Tribal Community Libraries
Encourage & facilitate students in tribal communities with books & gadgets on a global range of subjects & genres.
Provide community youth & school students to the art-of-possibility with modern educational tools & assets.
We are currently running a Children’s Book Drive to collect books for our Balrampur Community Library for ethnic children in the community. This initiative is solely funded by our patrons & those of you who wish to bring education to children in tribal communities.
Please take a moment to read more & we welcome you joining our #Read2Grow mission to bring books and learning materials to the children in these remote parts of the tribal community.

Mentoring & Sponsoring Students
Sponsor, coach & mentor talented tribal students pursuing school & college education. Assist students to overcome social & family hurdles & continue formal mainstream education.
Continuous mentoring, counseling & guidance keep the students’ progress on track & focused on early career planning.
Helping Tribal Weavers & Artists
Dokra is a rich, traditional art form with generation of artists’ families perfecting this craft of costume designs on various types of silk, including Tassar Silk, Dupion Silk & Kosa Silk.
Competition with highly mechanized commercial facilities have driven these traditional artists to the brink of starvation & find employment in cheap labor contract work.
JSWF Programs
Jay Shakuntala Welfare Foundation runs numerous programs on women’s healthcare, child education & CSR programs in rural tribal communities of Chhattisgarh.
Documentaries
We are creating awareness videos focused on lost Indian heritages, tribal cultures & authentic tribal performing arts.
