Dantour Vikas Sarvajnik Puniyarth Trust (DVSPT) was established to promote social justice, health education, de-addiction, and spread social awareness among underprivileged women in Rajasthan.

Some of their initiatives are as follows:

• De-addiction: DVSPT runs two rehabilitation centres with the assistance of the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment. Each centre has an average of 50 visitors per week. In addition to free medicine and counselling, the Trust provides free boarding and lodging. Drug addicts are closely monitored by a medical team until they recover from withdrawal symptoms. Following recovery, they join a rehabilitation process along with recovering alcoholics. DVSPT treats around 500 patients annually.
• Rajeev Gandhi Rural Mobile Medical Unit and Mobile Van Unit: Aimed at providing medical facilities to the rural, remote areas of Bikaner for those who are deprived of consistent, modern healthcare because they are far from hospitals or living in a slum/depressed region. The mobile medical unit team visits villages, conducts check-ups, tests, and distributes medicine. Each year around 13,000 patients are cared for by the mobile medical unit and 12,000 patients by the mobile van unit.
• Hunar Foundation: An institute devoted to vocational training and placement free of cost. They offer over 10 courses, such as basic computer course, hardware & networking, graphic design, photography, and spoken English.
• Self-Help Groups: Initiated to guide women towards economic empowerment, motivate women to develop their skills and create employment opportunities for themselves. They are provided with training in agriculture, handloom and handicrafts.
