Integrated Rural Development Trust

IRDT was initiated in 1987 to promote development programme in 36 villages in Dharmapuri and krishnagiri districts of Tamilnadu. As of now IRDT has reached out to 489 villages and initiated 786 Women Self Help Groups with the main focus of addressing the overall development of the most disadvantaged, marginalized and vulnerable communities without having any bios on caste, creed and colour in order to bring socio economic equity and empower them towards sustainable development.

APRIL 2022-2023 marked the post-covid as far as India is concerned. Work with the poor and disadvantaged focused on the ravages and disasters inflicted by COVID-19 on the people. Sakti needed to draw up programs and find resources for the same. After the scare caused by COVID-19, people also started withdrawing into their safe and secure Zones. The concern for others shown during the covid-19 epidemic started to pale as is experienced today. Sakti focused on resilience and welfare measures keeping in mind the abilities in hand and resources available.
