Who we are

Our Journey

Wilhelm Meyers Development Society (WMDS) is a social service organization promoted and managed by the Sisters of St. Ann of Luzern in and around Visakhapatnam division and also in different states of India. As an expression of our  social apostolate. Guided by Gospel values and inspired by the charism of the congregation, WMDS is dedicated to serving the poor, the marginalized, and those whose voices often go unheard.


The Society works towards holistic and sustainable development by addressing the social, economic, and emotional challenges faced by vulnerable individuals and communities. Our interventions focus on street children, children at risk, and individuals affected by drug abuse and addiction, providing care, rehabilitation, counseling, and continuous support to help them reintegrate into society with dignity and hope. We also extend legal aid and guidance to those who lack access to justice, enabling them to claim their rights and live free from exploitation.


A major thrust of WMDS is women empowerment. Through the formation of women self-help groups, leadership training, skill development, and income-generating activities, we strive to empower women to become confident, self-reliant, and active contributors to their families and communities. In rural areas, we promote organic farming and sustainable agricultural practices to support livelihoods, protect the environment, and ensure long-term food security.


Rooted in faith and committed to social transformation, Wilhelm Meyers Development Society believes in nurturing human dignity, fostering self-reliance, and building inclusive communities. Through collaboration with local communities, volunteers, and partner organizations, we continue our mission of service, compassion, and justice, working towards a society where every individual is respected, empowered, and given the opportunity to lead a meaningful life.


Our Mission

WILHELM MEYER’S DEVELOPMENTAL SOCIETY

Our Vision

A compassionate green world upholding equality, dignity and justice for all.

Our Stakeholders

Our stakeholders are the social poor – marginalized sections of society and we treat them equally
and with dignity - irrespective of religion, caste, tribe, gender and region. While keeping the
spiritual charism, we embrace diversity in religion, caste, gender, tribe and region.
a. Children in day and residential schools getting educated with ethical and spiritual values.
Drop-out children who are mainstreamed our own schools, government and private schools.
b. Health affected from social poor, including children, women, men and transgender. We
reach out to these stakeholders with institutional care and outreach programmes
c. Adolescent youth – girls and boys are educated. This has created roadmaps for poverty
reduction and youth entering job markets.
d. Most vulnerable: differently-abled, displaced, destitutes, women at risk, neglected aged and
orphans.
e. Workers in the unorganized sector

Our Core Missions

1. Right to Education, Protection and Safety
We believe and practice holistic approach with ethical and value-based education to children and
youth. Special focus is given to adolescent youth (girls and boys) to advance gender sensitive
education. In our child pedagogy, we adopt innovative ways of bringing joy through dreams and
story-telling in formal and informal education.
2. Access to health and entitlements for body and mind well-being
We provide out-patient and in-patient service in our hospitals; domiciliary care; preventive care
through a variety of outreach initiatives – awareness, campaigns, community visits and palliative
care especially to terminally ill with HIV infections, cancer, tuberculosis and other ailments.
Alternative systems of health care are part of our health service to the poor.
3. Empowering women to advance gender equality, dignity and diversity
Our endeavor is to push frontiers of gender equality, dignity and diversity. We work for women
to be at par in decision making and leadership positions - in the families, communities and
societal institutions. We believe that women (along with children, youth and men) are
empowered to be in the forefront to address vulnerabilities of marginalized communities in
climate change.

4. Human Capital Formation
We believe that adolescent youth (all genders) from marginalized communities should be
capacitated through higher education and enter into the job market. Through this, the first
generation and second generation of employable educated youth would be self-empowered and
move their families out of economic marginalities.
