The Kanaka Durga Weaker Section Mahila Mandali

About TKDWSMM

Four decades of compassion in action.

Founded in 1984 and registered under the Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860, Government of Andhra Pradesh, our mandali has been a quiet but unwavering force for the marginalised — orphan children, neglected elders, persons with disabilities and rural women — in Guntur District.

We believe dignity is a right, not a privilege. Every meal served, every child schooled, every elder cared for is a step toward a more just community.
