Have questions about our mission, membership, or how we operate? We have compiled a list of frequently asked questions to help you understand how SHIELD Human Rights Organisation works on the ground. If you cannot find the answer you are looking for, please feel free to reach out to us directly through our contact page.
SHIELD stands for Sustainable Human Rights Initiatives for Empowerment, Leadership & Development. We are a registered, non-profit charitable and social service organization based in Andhra Pradesh, India. Guided by our motto, "Justice, Welfare, Equality and Service to Humanity," we work across multiple sectors, including human rights protection, women and child welfare, rural development, health, and environmental conservation.
No. SHIELD is a strictly non-political, non-religious, and non-profit organization. We operate solely for the charitable objectives outlined in our Memorandum of Association, prioritizing humanity above all else.
You can support our active welfare programs through secure bank transfers, online donations, or material contributions (such as educational kits or medical supplies). Because we are a strictly non-profit entity, 100% of our received funds are utilized for our public welfare projects. Our income is entirely locked into our charitable goals, and no profit is ever distributed among our members.
Any person who has attained 18 years of age, is of sound mind, aligns deeply with our aims of justice and welfare, and agrees to follow our official rules and regulations can apply for membership.
