Guided Walk through Bengaluru's Ejipura Slums Activity - Bangalore Travel Guide

Overview

Ejipura slums is perhaps Bengaluru's largest. The challenges of poor infrastructure, unchecked development, and large scale urban migration come to focus here. Poverty and associated effects are all around.

Yet, this is also a place where the human spirit triumphs over adversity.

We will fstop at the Swabhimaan community center - where children of all ages from the neighborhood come for curricular tuitions and after school programs. You will meet the teachers and volunteers working hard to improve student performance.

We will then stop at the Swabhimaan Clinic - where doctors consult and distribute medicines for an all inclusive price of Rs. 10 (12 cents) per visit.

Finally we will stop by at the Swabhimaan grocery distribution center where free staples are served to the most in need.

A Swabhimaan volunteer will walk you through the sites. All proceeds are given back to people in the community through Swabhimaan Trust, a non-profit working in Ejipura since 2002.
