Ramakrishna Mission is a philanthropic, volunteer organisation founded by Swami Vivekananda on May 1, 1897. The Shivanahalli center of the mission was started in the year 1983 focusing on an integrated approach towards development in the hamlets around Bannerghatta forest near Bangalore. The mission conducts extensive work in the areas of education, health care, rural development, tribal welfare, environment conservation and culture. The Mission bases its work on the motto of the organization Atmano Mokshartham Jagad-hitaya Cha. Translated from Sanskrit it means For one’s own salvation, and for the good of the world. In Shivanahalli, the mission has a hospital, a Kannada and an english medium school, a vocational training center among other programs.
