Shri Nirotilal Buddha Sansthan (SNBS)

Introduction:

Keeping in view the fact that more than a quarter of Indias population has been living as downtrodden
and marginalized for centuries, Shri Nirotilal Buddha Sansthan (SNBS) came in to existence in 1994
as an non government organization of marginalized people and has undertaken the task to promote the
welfare of this section of the society, lead to their upliftment and development for integration with the
total society by improvement in their economic, educational, social, cultural and health standards.

Shri Nirotilal Buddha Sansthan was registered under Society Act in 1994 and has been primarily
working in the areas of health and its determinants, safe drinking water, hygiene, sanitation,
HIV/AIDS awareness, family planning & welfare, child labor & literacy, education, livelihood,
plantation, community awareness and development, with especial focus on marginalized sections of
the societies, slum dweller women and children through various development programs for over 19
years.

After 1995, SNBS intends to continue its role as a facilitator to improve the effectiveness of various
national programs and build capacities of communities to address a wide range of reproductive health,
child health, illiteracy, family planning, pulse polio and HIV/AIDS challenges. The programs of
SNBS aim for Vulnerable individuals and families in selected slums of Agra to achieve sustainable
