About Samarth Social Foundation
“Drug-Free India” Campaign
Today, in society, we see various kinds of problems, including accidents, domestic disputes, illnesses, divorces, rising unemployment, crime, mental stress, and a section of society caught in this web of struggles. After closely studying these issues, the root cause appears to be addiction. In our country, about 60% of people are affected by some form of addiction, which severely impacts their financial, mental, physical, and social lives.
India is known as a country of youth, with a significantly higher population of young people compared to other nations. With this young population in mind, we have to think about how to keep them away from addiction. This thought led to the establishment of the Samarth Social Foundation. Under the guidance of this foundation, the “Drug-Free India” campaign is being carried out.
The goal of the Drug-Free India campaign is to reach every home and individual. To achieve this, the foundation began its efforts with awareness programs. During this phase, people from various walks of life, from farmers to the educated, joined hands with us in this mission. Various doctors from different fields also joined the foundation to provide help. Through these doctors, we offer counseling services to help addicted individuals and their families prepare mentally for recovery. Simultaneously, we provide treatment at minimal costs. For those individuals who have no desire to quit or cannot overcome their addiction with basic treatment, the foundation has established a Residential De-Addiction and Counseling Center where comprehensive treatment is offered.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj are known for leading an addiction-free life, fulfilling the dream of Swarajya under the guidance of Rajmata Jijau. Inspired by their great work and thoughts, the Samarth Social Foundation has established the Shivshambhu Residential De-Addiction and Counseling Center.
This center is equipped with expert doctors, professional counselors, home-cooked meals, yoga sessions, and many other facilities. The center ensures a playful and supportive environment for the patients. This atmosphere discourages patients from fleeing or developing any negative thoughts. Since Samarth Social Foundation is a social organization, it ensures that even the poorest individuals from society can avail themselves of treatment at the center by providing all services at minimal cost.
To strengthen the work of the foundation and to ensure that the Drug-Free India Campaign reaches every corner of the country, more than 100 social organizations and institutions have joined forces with us. Additionally, guidance is provided from spiritual institutions. Over 600 doctors and thousands of social workers are collaborating to help us bring positive change.
