“This is our humble request to all of you. We need to spread the word for the soldiers who are still fighting…Our soldiers here depend on the support of our loved ones back home……Tell everyone you know of the trying times our brothers are facing. Tell everyone of the heroism of the soldiers who lost their lives and of the soldiers who are fighting to recover what they have lost.”

"What an opportunity to give back to soldiers and their families. Anytime we can bring a smile to someone's face, especially in a critical situation that reinforces our spirit and our commitment to do the right thing". ….Team SWO-INDIA.
The Sainik Welfare Charitable Fund (SWCF) provides support, encouragement, and hope by treating each soldier like family. We value our soldiers' sacrifices and commitment to this great country and welcome the opportunity to serve them in their financial needs too.
We believe that the men and women in the Armed Forces are the unsung heroes of our country. They are often just "regular people" like everyone who are called upon to perform extraordinary feats under the most unrelenting conditions.
It's very hard for many of us to imagine the sacrifices that our soldiers make while carrying out their duty and the hardships endured by their families while their loved ones are far away.
Many of our soldiers are seriously injured while performing their duties and some make the ultimate sacrifice, often leaving behind wives and young children. We provide financial and emotional support for incarcerated soldiers and their families
Our primary goal is to help these men and women and their families retain their independence and maintain the dignity and respect they deserve.
In order to provide quality services to those families in need, we need your help!
