It is carving a niche in the field of social educational and charitable activities on its fundamental principle that's making happy living to all. Since its inception RCFI has been working at grass roots level in order to improve the quality of life of underprivileged, socially backward and marginalized groups.
Orphan Care

Further, they are offered trainings in art, craft and vocational subjects and modern life skills.
Sweet water supply
Water scarcity is fast becoming India's No. 1 woe, one third of population have to deal with daily shortages. The foundation has been drilling wells; bore wells and installing portable water tanks in rural and urban areas alike to tackle the issue. People from more than twenty states are the beneficiaries of the project. So far 2,425 drinking water projects have been commissioned in various states. There are thousands of public water projects implemented in various remote areas of the nation and thousands of families enjoy its benefit.

Income Generation Program
RCFI believes that the social change will take place when the basic needs of human are fulfilled. So, we focus more equipping someone to earn his daily bread, rather than giving temporary supports, which will not only give him a means to his necessities but will also, endow him with a sense of pride. RCFI guides the unemployed and unwaged, and distributes self-employment tools in the form of shops and financial help for self-employment.
Feed the Hunger
Taking it as a serious concern, more than 1,000 deprived are getting the daily meal of hygienic and nourishing in many slums and lanes of the country. Monthly and occasional food kit distribution by RCFI volunteers are reaching out the very needy population unseen in mainstream around us.

Monthly stipends and pensions are given to deserving applicants after strict evaluation.
Dress Distribution
Thousands have escaped from the brink of death with the timely interferences of RCFI in distributing winter clothes, blankets and even normal dresses. More than 60,000 dress kits for kids in different parts of India were distributed in 2013 as a part of Dress One Million project of Shaikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President of UAE and the Ruler of Dubai.
