Ramakrishna Mission is a worldwide spiritual movement which aims at the harmony of religions, all-round development of human faculties, social equality, and peace for all humanity, without any distinctions of creed, caste, race or nationality. Worship of God in Man is the guiding ideal of the organization. Following this noble dictum, Ramakrishna Mission, Shillong has been rendering yeomen services to the people of the state since 1930s. Over the last seventy-five years and more, Ramakrishna Mission, Shillong has been serving the people of this region tirelessly, braving various adversities. The development of Ramakrishna Mission Charitable Dispensary (along with its Mobile services) as one of the most trusted health-care facilities in Shillong and the setting up of Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Cultural Centre as a hub of educational and youth activities speak volumes of the vision and commitment of the Mission.

With the biggest crisis of the century that the world is passing through now, has also thrown our nation into challenges perhaps never faced before. The COVID 19 pandemic has made every individual accept the lockdown and social distancing as means to combat the situation, but this also has created a huge socio-economic vacuum on the community. With a densely populated nation as ours, the poor are the worst sufferer. They find it difficult to even fetch themselves their daily morsels of food, let alone the masks and sanitizers to keep them safe from the pandemic.
