About PUSHPA
After many generations of nomadic existence, a group of families from the Yanadi tribe joined to create a permanent settlement on the edge of Ganapavaram, a small village in rural India.
The Yanadi were one of many tribes living in the Guntur district of India who were encouraged by a government land grant to abandon their migratory life style and transition to permanent homes and sustainable jobs.
In July of 2005, Franklin Gummadi and his wife Shirley incorporated PUSHPA as a 501(c)3 charitable organization to help these developing communities to push ahead.

Creating Community
PUSHPA Projects
The PUSHPA mission has evolved during our many years of operation. Always seeking to serve the people of the villages better, PUSHPA's focus has gradually shifted toward scholastic and vocational education to better prepare the youth of each village for the challenge of helping themselves.
The evening schools and sewing schools have become PUSHPA's most successful initiatives.

Future of the Community
Contributions
Your contribution to PUSHPA goes a long way in India, not only because it will be sent half-way around the world, but also because a dollar in India does so much work.
Your donation is further magnified as PUSHPA partners with other NGOs, volunteers, and even the Indian government to increase the effectiveness of your generosity.
Thank you for considering our mission for your support.
