wHAT WE DO
Pathways to
Progress
Our work reaches over 278 leprosy colonies across 18 states. With 350+ projects, we’ve empowered thousands.
Our Strategy
We work to empower individuals affected by leprosy and their families. Our focus is on sustainable change, not charity.
Through education, livelihoods, and awareness, we restore agency because inclusion begins with opportunity.
Who We Work With
SILF’s livelihood programs help individuals affected by leprosy become self-reliant.
With financial, technical, and training support, they launch businesses and earn a dignified income, reducing their dependence on alms and restoring confidence.
LIVELIHOOD
We enable individuals affected by leprosy to launch micro-enterprises, helping them break free from dependency. Over 3,000 beneficiaries across India now earn with pride through our livelihood programs.
EDUCATION & SKILL TRAINING
Combining education awareness and vocational training to empower youth, improve health, and secure dignified, sustainable livelihoods.
COMMUNICATION & ADVOCACY
We fight stigma with awareness. Through youth festivals, college sessions, and public campaigns.
HUMANITARIAN AID
From food relief to telemedicine and infrastructure support, we step in when leprosy-affected families face emergencies.
CHILDREN DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Safe learning spaces with after-school support, libraries, digital skills, sports, and life skills that boost confidence and continuity.
Our Core Principles
Backed by purpose and driven by people, SILF creates lasting impact through trust, transparency, and a grassroots approach that truly understands community needs.
