BSS runs Bal Sansar Public School in Hathikhera, Ajmer district, a village school teaching 155+ children from pre-primary to Class 8, 60% of them girls. It runs a Targeted Intervention for injecting drug users in Ajmer funded by the Rajasthan State AIDS Control Society, which NACO has evaluated and graded Good and designated a Learning Site. It opened the Aarogyam Kendra community health centre at Hathikhera in January 2026. Its Taiyari adolescent health programme, across 30 Gram Panchayats, has concluded.

The organisation is registered under the Rajasthan Societies Registration Act (346/91-92) and holds 12A and 80G registrations, FCRA registration 125560132 and CSR-1 registration CSR00058152. Its audited accounts and annual reports are published at balsansarindia.com/documents.

Figures you can quote

Each figure carries the thing that makes it mean what it says. Two in particular are often reported wrongly, so the distinction is printed rather than left implicit.

Please get these right

Four things to check before you publish. Each is the sentence the site already prints, with a link to the page that prints it.

  • Not an orphanage

    No. We ran Sneh Sansar, a residential home for children orphaned by AIDS, in Ajmer district between 2008 and 2013; it is closed and we do not operate a children's home today. If you are seeking help for a child at risk, please contact Childline India on 1098 — free and available 24 hours — or the District Child Protection Unit, Ajmer, which are the appropriate authorities.

    BSS in Ajmer
  • Sambal SEDI has closed

    No. The centre operated from April 2013 to 2025, twelve years, and has closed. BSS remains committed to skill development for rural youth and is exploring alternative channels for a revival, but there is no successor programme running today.

    Sambal SEDI
  • Who funded which project

    Our most recent CSR partnership was with Cochin Shipyard Limited, whose ₹40 Lakh grant funded the Aarogyam Kendra community health centre, completed and inaugurated in January 2026. Mitsubishi Elevator India funded two digital smart classrooms at our school.

    BSS in Jaipur
  • Who funds TI-IDU

    A Targeted Intervention for Injecting Drug Users: an HIV prevention programme in Ajmer district funded by the Rajasthan State AIDS Control Society (RSACS), active since October 2023.

    NACO commissioned an evaluation and graded the project Good, and it has been continued for FY 2026-27.
