Why Choose Us
Across India, thousands of Gaushalas face mounting financial challenges in maintaining the health, nutrition, and dignity of cows—especially non-milking and aged ones. These sacred animals, deeply woven into India’s cultural and spiritual fabric, often suffer from neglect due to lack of resources.
Manpho Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Manpho Group, has always been committed to causes that promote sustainability, compassion, and cultural preservation.
Gau Patra is our answer to this crisis—a transformative initiative designed to protect India’s sacred cows while creating a circular model of sustainability.
Vision
To establish a self-sustainable, continuous fodder production and distribution system for the protection, care, and honour of Desi Cows
Mission
To ensure that no cow suffers due to neglect or lack of resources by integrating sustainable agriculture, waste-to-wealth innovation, and community participation.
Six Pillars of Transformation
Gau Patra operates through six interconnected programs that create a comprehensive ecosystem of care, sustainability, and economic empowerment. Each pillar strengthens the others, forming a circular model that benefits cows, Gaushalas, farmers, and the environment.
What We Do Page
Six Pillars of Transformation
Pillar 1: Nutritious Fodder Supply Program
>Manpho Foundation will provide balanced, high-nutrition fodder to Gaushalas free of cost. The fodder will be scientifically formulated for optimum cow health and milk production, with regular supply schedules ensuring consistent nourishment.
>This initiative will especially support underfunded rural Gaushalas struggling to meet feed costs, creating immediate impact where it's needed most.
Pillar 3: Circular Agriculture Model
>Cow dung and urine serve as natural fertilizers and soil enhancers to grow nutritious fodder. The fodder farms will operate near or within Gaushalas to ensure a closed-loop ecosystem, reducing dependency on external resources and ensuring 100% organic feeding cycles.
>This regenerative approach improves soil health year after year while maintaining the highest nutritional standards for the animals.
Pillar 4: Farmer Empowerment Program
Manpho Foundation will identify and train farmers who own cows, transforming them into rural entrepreneurs. Our comprehensive training program covers production and marketing of Panchagavya-based products, efficient cow management for better milk yield, maintenance of hygienic and humane shelters, and access to financial literacy and market linkages.
Pillar 5: Calf Adoption Scheme
>Gau Patra introduces a structured calf adoption program, enabling individuals and organizations to "adopt" a calf and contribute towards its care and upbringing.
> Adopters receive regular updates, photos, and detailed reports on their calf's wellbeing, and can participate in Gaushala visits and annual events honoring their contributions.
>Adoption funds are utilized directly for calf nutrition, shelter maintenance, and healthcare—ensuring transparency and impact.
>This creates both emotional and financial engagement from donors while strengthening Gaushala support networks.
