Shiva Trust Policies
INVEST IN EQUALITY (IIE)
Join Us in a Movement for Change.
Shiva Trust, despite our success to date, remains a small organisation, lacking the financial resources and public profile of others. We have spent all our time on the work, and none on the marketing. We are now seeking social investment partners who share our vision of a society where every person regardless of social or economic circumstance is afforded equal respect and equal opportunity. We require recurring committed support from corporate partners to cover our annual administrative overheads. Such support would allow us to plan ahead, to build up our in-house capacity and to maximise the social return on the investment we have made to date. It would allow us to allocate 100% of funds raised elsewhere to our programmes.

Who We Are
Our Founder, Ramana and her family are joined by an amazing team of Trustees, Staff and Volunteers who together form the Shiva Trust Charity.
Every member of our team is dedicated to improving the lives of the marginalised within our society. We all work tirelessly to effect lasting change, and empower our beneficiaries to create equal opportunities.
Our team is made up of Women, Ethnic Minorities, and Young people. We have all experienced living in society as a marginalised person, and we have all overcome the hardships and challenges. We know that to keep what we have learnt, and maintain our own personal growth that we have to give to back to those who are now experiencing hardship themselves.
Impact Stories
Empowerment - For Young People in UK
We worked with a Youth project from Moss side, Manchester UK to provide opportunities for the young people from Jamaica living in Manchester to have access to our rural farm. The young people had the opportunity to work with horses, pigs, and sheep. Build fences. Develop pond habitats. And plant trees. They were provided with Training and Skills, mentoring and emotional support throughout the farming experience. It improved their mental health, and inspired them to strive for more for themselves and their life.
A Brighter Future — For an India Community
We worked with a large community of women in Tirupati, India. The women came from an untouchable caste, and had previously not been permitted to work or seek employment. We were invited to support the women and spent time building up their self esteem and confidence. We then invested in training and skills: helping them to produce their own products from home and supplied them with all materials, tools and equipment. We supported them through the business development process. And finally helped them to sell their products in shops and retail stores.
