About Nav Chetna Welfare Society
A youth-led, registered welfare society working every day to turn awareness into action across Western Rajasthan.
How Nav Chetna Began — From a WhatsApp Group to a Registered Society
Nav Chetna Welfare Society was founded on 15 July 2020 in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, by a group of passionate young individuals who shared one belief: that real change starts with people willing to show up.
It began as a simple WhatsApp group called "Education Help Society" — no big plan, no funding, no identity — just a sincere desire to do something. Through this group, Prakash Choudhary, Monika Kachhwaha, Pharshu Beniwal, Bharat Anjana, Rupkishor Choudhary, Avinash Prajapat and others connected.
What started as conversations about social issues slowly turned into action. During the Corona pandemic, when the world was retreating into their homes, these young volunteers stepped out to help — arranging plasma donors, blood supplies, oxygen cylinders, and supporting displaced families.
On 29 December 2024, the journey received its formal identity — registered under the Rajasthan Societies Registration Act, 1958 (Reg. No. COOP/2024/JODHPUR/500176). On 1 January 2025, the foundation of the office was laid. Nav Chetna had become more than an idea — it had become a movement.
We didn't wait for permission to start caring about our city. We just started — and kept going.
Our Mission
To reach the last person left behind by circumstance — through education, health support, environmental action, and social awareness — ensuring dignity and opportunity for every section of society, especially the voiceless and the vulnerable.
Our Vision
A society where change doesn't wait for permission — where sensitive, compassionate youth take responsibility for those around them; where no child is denied education, no elder feels abandoned, and no family faces crisis alone. Nav Chetna envisions a new social consciousness across Rajasthan and beyond by 2030.

Registered under the Rajasthan Societies Registration Act, 1958 (Reg. No. COOP/2024/JODHPUR/500176), on 29 December 2024.
Active on the Ground
Continuing our work in social awareness, community support, leadership development and elder care across Jodhpur.
Our Work
Education, Health, Environment, Social Awareness, Community Support, Leadership Development and Elder Care — one running idea: awaken people to act, then stand beside them.
To reach the last person left behind by circumstance — through education, health support, environmental action, and social awareness — ensuring dignity and opportunity for every section of society, especially the voiceless and the vulnerable.
Education Support
Nav Chetna provides free educational support to underprivileged children — books, materials, school enrolment and direct guidance — ensuring that lack of income never stops a child from learning.
We are currently supporting three children — Ravindra, Pooja and Roshni — through their schooling up to Class 12, in collaboration with Amradar Senior Secondary School.
- Direct school enrolment assistance
- Books, materials & stationery covered
- Collaboration with local schools & colleges
Health Wing
Nav Chetna's Health Wing supports patients who need both at-home care and hospital facilitation. We mobilised a ₹25 lakh fund that now actively covers home care services, with medical supervision at AIIMS Jodhpur and Zydus Hospital.
During COVID-19, our team arranged plasma donors, blood supplies, oxygen cylinders and medical equipment — a 24/7 lifeline for countless families.
- At-home care coordination
- AIIMS Jodhpur & Zydus Hospital support
- Pandemic response & emergency services
Environment — Harit Bhavishya Abhiyan
Fighting desertification in Western Rajasthan with tree plantation drives across Phalodi, Jodhpur and surrounding areas. Phase 3 of our Harit Bhavishya Abhiyan targets 500 more trees.
- 573+ trees planted to date
- Covers Phalodi, Jodhpur & surrounding areas
- Phase 3 underway — 500 more trees targeted
Social Awareness Campaigns
We run on-ground and digital campaigns that raise awareness on the social issues affecting our communities most — from public health basics to civic responsibility.
These drives are often the first step: before communities can act, they need clear, honest information delivered by people they trust.
- Street and neighbourhood awareness drives
- Simple, honest messaging over jargon
- Built around issues communities actually raise
Community Support & Outreach
Our team works directly with communities to identify real needs and connect them with the right support and resources.
We don't arrive with a fixed plan — outreach starts with listening, then follows through with practical help.
- Direct, on-ground community visits
- Needs identified together with residents
- Follow-through, not one-time visits
Leadership Development
We believe in leading by example and developing leadership qualities in the community members and volunteers who work alongside us.
Rather than one leader directing many, we try to build many small leaders — people who can carry an initiative forward even when we're not in the room.
- Real responsibility for volunteers, early
- Mentorship over management
- Judged by what continues without us
Elder Care & Dignity Initiative
Our most personal work yet: visiting Jodhpur's old age homes to honour the people who gave everything for their families, and now often ask for nothing more than company.
We met people who gave their everything for their families — now yearning only for love and presence. We don't just visit. We stay, we listen, and we come back.
This is where "dignity" stops being a word on a page and becomes an afternoon spent sitting with someone who's been waiting for it.

Stories From the Field
Real stories of impact, struggle, and hope — from the communities we serve across Jodhpur and Rajasthan.
Active Initiatives
Save Ravindra Campaign
Ravindra, a young boy from Jodhpur, was diagnosed with ANEC — a rare and severe neurological condition. Through the "Save Ravindra" campaign, Nav Chetna mobilized over 12,000 supporters, raised funds, and ensured his treatment at a top hospital in Ahmedabad. He is now recovering at home under AIIMS Jodhpur's supervision.
Nav Chetna Support Mahesh
Mahesh, a 7-year-old child from Jodhpur, was diagnosed with Brain Tumor cancer. Nav Chetna launched a fund-raising campaign and successfully raised approximately ₹17 lakh for his treatment. The community came together to give this young child a fighting chance.
What's Next
Traffic Safety Awareness & Helmet Distribution
A city-wide campaign to spread awareness about road safety and distribute helmets to two-wheeler riders in Jodhpur. Partnering with Rajasthan Police and local authorities.
