Arupa Mission Research Foundation (AMRF) was established on the second day of February in the year 1995 and registered formally under Trust Act on the 21st of September 1998, getting the registration number 1729. The Foundation’s deep concern over the plight of the deprived, vulnerable and underprivileged and the sad plight of man ravaged mother nature augmented a blazing trail of activities in the socio-economic development of mankind and environment.

Having adopted the participatory approach peoples voices are reflected in the needs and outcomes. A notable characteristic of Arupa Mission Research Foundation is its planned approach towards development and the involvement of concerned people, partners and stakeholders at all levels. Advocacy and justice are the other two cornerstones apart from activities linked to disaster management, low cost construction, food security and alternative livelihood which form the foundation of the organisation’s endeavors.

The trust being a non profit, non political and secular organisation works in liaison with a number of different national and international stakeholders and funding agencies. All implementation although is need based and through peoples participation only. Regular feedback and monitoring of previous projects and results seen are considered to be the map-work for future activities.
Besides its normal activities, AMRF has initiated collective efforts to attract the educationists, intellectuals, social scientists and even young people to its fold for carrying out awareness campaign against casteism, gender sensitization, epidemics, mother and child care, environmental and cultural degradation, and promoting and strengthening of people’s organisation to encounter with their problems. AMRF thus works between the invisible poor and its visible poverty and makes efforts towards enabling them to project their inherent strength against their conditioned weakness.
Whatever has been achieved has only become possible because of the untiring efforts of the members, timely guidance of the advisory board, active participation of the AMRF family members, co-operation of the Government, line departments and funding agencies and the involvement of the public at large.
