/ -- Continuing the legacy of humanitarian and philanthropic efforts of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Presidents, H.H. Sushri Dr. Vishakha Tripathi Ji, H.H. Sushri Dr. Shyama Tripathi Ji and H.H. Sushri Dr. Krishna Tripathi Ji have confirmed a contribution of 100 Lakhs to the Prime Minister's CARES Fund. The trust secretary, Mr. Ram Puri, said that the initiative was taken to help the state government fight against the COVID-19 outbreak. "Our main objective is to support the Government's plan to quickly recover from this challenging situation and to help the impoverished manage during these difficult times," said Puri.

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat (JKP), under the guidance and direction of its Presidents, also operates Jagadguru Kripalu Chikitsalaya and Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Education.

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Education offers education (Kindergarten to College level) to underprivileged girls from Pratapgarh and nearby areas and has helped over 55,000 of them to get the education they need to have a good life. The Poor Relief Fund operated under JKP, also gives out warm blankets, jackets, clothing, food items, school bags and resources (benches, chairs etc) and many other necessities to almost 100,000 impoverished individuals every year.

All these philanthropic efforts are in place to ensure that the vision of Jagadguru Kripalu, who was given the title of Jagadguru on 14th January 1957, continues through these combined efforts to help and support the communities and individuals that needs help.
