About PUSHPA

In July of 2005, PUSHPA was incorporated as a 501(c)3 charitable organization by Franklin Gummadi and his wife, Shirley, to address a recognized need in the Guntur region of India where Franklin was born.

At the time, numerous villages near the city of Guntur had been settled by formerly nomadic people facing the increased challenges of communal living. Franklin and Shirley decided to become involved to help these people help themselves.

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.

Contributions

Your donation 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 contribution 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.
