Welcome to Sindh Rural Support Organization's (SRSO) official LinkedIn page! Established on May 29, 2003, as a not-for-profit organization and registered under section 42 of the Companies Act 2017 (Formerly known as Companies Ordinance, 1984). SRSO stands as a beacon of hope and change in Rural Sindh dedicated to the upliftment of communities, supported by the Sindh Government's visionary commitment. SRSO’s mandate is to alleviate poverty by harnessing people’s potential lying within the communities to help themselves and undertake development activities. Our mission is rooted in a comprehensive strategy endorsed by the government. We actively engage in poverty reduction through community empowerment, skills enhancement, capacity building, and community-supported infrastructure projects. SRSO journey began in the District Sukkur and has evolved over 20 impactful years, expanding to 15 districts and 722 Union Councils of Sindh. With roots in the National Rural Support Programme, SRSO adapts dynamically to meet the ever-changing needs of rural Sindh. We emerged due to the social mobilization movement that originated in Pakistan in 1982. Led by the Aga Khan Rural Support Programme, and later, with funding & support from the Government of Sindh, our endowment increased from Rs. 500 million to Rs. 1 billion. This growth empowered us to expand our outreach to 23 Union Councils across five districts. Our objectives go beyond conventional approaches. SRSO strives to foster grassroots-level organizations, enabling rural communities to plan and manage developmental activities. Alleviating poverty is our core objective, complementing the Government of Pakistan's policy and supporting the Government of Sindh's poverty reduction strategies. The vision of SRSO is grand, yet tangible. We aspire to create a framework of grassroots institutions in villages across 722 Union Councils, empowering rural poor and women to break the cycle of poverty.
