Stand with tribal Jhabua

Donate to Shivganga

The villages give the labour — freely, in their hundreds of thousands of hours. What a donation buys is the rest: the cement, the pipe, the saplings and the tools that turn that labour into water standing in the ground.

Where it goes

What a gift turns into

Shivganga does not hand out money in villages. It puts material against labour that the village has already committed — which is why a modest gift goes a long way here.

The village brings the labour

Thousands of people walk to a hill and work it in a single day, unpaid. That is the Halma, and it is the part no donation could buy.

Your gift makes it hold

Cement, pipe, tools, saplings and the diesel to move them. That is what turns a day of digging into a talab that still holds water in April.

Come and see what it paid for

Donors are welcome in Jhabua. Most people who give end up visiting, and most people who visit end up giving again.
