Annapurna Centre is located in a small village in the outskirt of Varanasi.

Annapurna Centre is a village social club created mainly for rural girls and rural women. This centre helps those girls and women who want to develop their confidence, communication skills, different other vocational skills as sewing and health and hygiene skills. This social club empowers girls and women for their future life and makes them strong and confident. It is a place where they are allowed to meet and to talk with others outside of their families. They can also speak of their female problems thanks to a gynecologist who is coming once a month.

Now currently with the help of international friends, Annapurna centre is able to have its own premises with two rooms, one kitchen and bathroom and a small garden. There are thirty girls and women, who are taking training in different job oriented skills for example candle making, stitching and swinging, incense stick making etc.
