About Krishnashray Gurukul SEDI

Nestled in the once-quiet village of Jatipura in Govardhan Tehsil, Mathura, Krishnashray Gurukul SEDI began its journey as a Silai Sewing School in collaboration with USHA, with a mission to empower women and children through skill-based learning. What started as a small initiative for the local community gradually expanded its impact, today reaching beneficiaries across nearly a 60 km radius.

To broaden opportunities for youth, the Gurukul partnered with the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICA) to introduce accounting and Tally programs, enabling young individuals to enter the workforce with practical, industry-ready skills.

As the scale and ambition of the institute grew, Krishnashray Gurukul joined hands with the Ambuja Cement Foundation (ACF) in June 2019 to establish a professionally run, structured skill development ecosystem. ACF brings decades of expertise, operating 33 skill training institutes across India and having trained more than 40,000 candidates in various trades—of which an impressive 75–80% are gainfully employed.

Today, Krishnashray Gurukul SEDI stands as a committed centre for livelihood development, creating meaningful pathways for education, employment, and self-reliance in the region.
