The Foundation was born out of a divine vision on 3rd December 2004, when the founding members, blessed with Maa Bhagwati’s grace, received the inspiration to establish a trust dedicated to seva (service) and bhakti (devotion). Since then, with the support of countless devotees and well-wishers, the Foundation has grown into a large family with branches, trustees, and volunteers across India and overseas, all united by faith, compassion, and the spirit of service.
• To organize grand Bhandaara and devotional events in honor of Maa Vaishno Devi.
• To serve society through health camps, support for women and children, education, and community welfare.
• To build a global network of seva that unites devotees across the world.
• To construct our first Dharamshala in Katra by the year 2035, after the historic removal of Article 370, to provide devotees with a sacred place to stay and serve.
Our vision is to spread devotion, service, and humanity across the world under the divine blessings of Maa Vaishno Devi. With the belief that “Together with everyone’s support, we will move forward and fulfill this mission,” we aim to:
• Unite devotees globally through faith and seva.
• Establish Maa Vaishno Devi International Foundation as a symbol of devotion and social service worldwide.
• Build spiritual, social, and cultural spaces where service meets devotion.
• Fulfill our long-term dream of building a grand Dharamshala in Katra by 2035, to serve devotees with love, respect, and care.
Our Foundation stands strong on three guiding pillars – Sahi Log, Samuhik Prayas, and Sahi Soch. Together, they shape our journey of devotion and service.
When the right people come together with pure intentions, every mission turns into a movement. The Foundation is blessed with such devoted individuals who dedicate their time, energy, and resources in the service of Maa.
Right thinking leads to right action. With a vision of service, devotion, and humanity, the Foundation builds initiatives that bring faith and compassion together.

Explore divine knowledge and stories of Maa Vaishno Devi.
Maa Vaishno Devi is a manifestation of Goddess Durga, worshipped as the Mother who protects, empowers, and blesses her devotees.
According to legend, Maa took human form to uphold dharma and later merged into a holy cave at Trikuta mountains, where she is worshipped eternally.
The three pindis symbolize Maa Mahakali, Maa Mahalakshmi, and Maa Saraswati – representing power, wealth, and wisdom.
The yatra is believed to fulfill wishes, purify the soul, and bring Maa’s blessings of health, prosperity, and protection.
The shrine of Maa rests in the Trikuta mountains, which are believed to radiate divine energy and protect all devotees who visit.
Although Maa is worshipped year-round, Navratri is considered the most auspicious time for her darshan and devotion.
