The Prem Rawat Foundation's basic principle is dignity peace and prosperity.
Powered by supporters and volunteers in over 70 countries, the foundation works to make
Prem Rawat's vision a reality through several empowering initiatives. The foundation offers
its signature peace education program to help participants from all walks of life discover
their own inner strength and personal peace. Over 250 000 people have benefited from the program in
more than 70 countries, and the workshop materials have been translated into over 30 languages.
All you can do is provide a platform for people to have hope: that they will have
peace in their lives, that they will have prosperity, that they will have dignity,
they will have joy in their life; and it'll start with them.
The foundation's Food for People program helps disadvantaged people emerge from the cycle of
poverty by providing nutritious meals, clean water, and educational opportunities. More than
4.5 million meals have been served in impoverished communities in India, Nepal and Ghana.
I wanted to do this as a humanitarian effort. It is hard to talk to a person about peace if
their stomach is growling because of hunger, so I wanted to bring some self-sufficiency
to the people. As i watch this unfold, I see what that does: better health, less crime,
more education, better success stories. This is what good, clean food and water can do.
The foundation also provides humanitarian aid to victims of natural disasters
and other dire hardships, working with partner organizations
in over 40 countries to help with food, water, medical care and more.
To preserve the integrity, to preserve the dignity of the people and yet provide them
assistance through the rough times - this is what our objective through TPRF has been.
The foundation sponsors international events and forums with Prem Rawat and other leaders
to further build awareness about the importance of personal peace.
Audiences from all walks of life in a wide variety of settings have benefited: from
intimate gatherings of inmates at correctional facilities and students at schools, to forums with
officials at the United Nations, the European Parliament and other prominent institutions.
For every audience, his core message is the same: peace is possible, and it begins with each person.
This is what i do. I go and talk to people. face to face. Sometimes the audience is 5000. Sometimes
it is 500,000. It empowers people to talk about peace, to want peace in their communities,
in their cultures, in their countries. And this is what i have dedicated my life to.
The purpose of the Prem Rawat foundation is not only to bring the message of peace,
but to allow people to have peace, prosperity, and to do this with dignity.
