About Us

A Family's Commitment to Seva and Service

Vedaanandam Foundation is a family-led non-profit organization devoted to breaking cycles of poverty and dependence by giving women the skills, confidence, and community they need to thrive.

Co-founded by siblings Yogacharya Pushpa Ji and Yogi Jay Ji, the foundation is driven by a shared family vision — guided by Seva — selfless service, the ancient yogic art of giving without expectation — with women's empowerment at its core and every program designed to serve women first.

Through every training program, every skill taught, and every woman supported, Vedaanandam Foundation brings light, independence, and lasting transformation into women's lives.
