Supporting Association for Thematic and Holistic Initiatives (SATHI) is a voluntary organization working towards the development of marginalized communities. SATHI envisions an inclusive and progressive society; where everyone is growing holistically and contributing to multidimensional human development. It has been established to achieve the vision of Gram Swaraj; in which every villager/citizen realizes their human potential and contributes to the development of the village as well as the nation through a participatory, transparent, and accountable local self-governance system.

It was conceptualized and founded by a renowned Gandhian Thinker and Social Activist Late Shree Paras Bhai with his 24 colleagues in 1992; and registered as a formal organization in July 2004 under Societies Registration Act 21, 1860. The founder of SATHI, Late Shree Paras Bhai was a follower of Gandhian ideology and part of promoting Gram Swaraj initiatives post- independence in most underdeveloped regions of the country.
