The Orpheus Sabha Foundation is a registered and established non-profit organisation under the Companies Act, 2013. We aim to provide the youth with the opportunity and platform to express their opinions, refine their research skills, enhance their public speaking abilities, and become a part of a community that is inclusive, diverse, and holistic. Orpheus has consistently been committed to the development of essential debating skills, the promotion of lively discussions, and the provision of a dynamic forum for public speaking.

Kshitizz, an NGO that was established and promoted by the visionary students of Damodaram Sanjivayya Law University, Visakhapatnam, is situated at the core of India's transformative spirit. The term "Kshitizz" is derived from the Hindi word "Horizon." An India-based not-for-profit and non-political organisation, Kshitizz is founded on the principles of progress and compassion. It is in tune with the tempo of empowerment.

The organization's noble mission is depicted in a tapestry of beneficiaries, including the Underprivileged Children, Youth, Old Age, and Women. Each stitch is meticulously woven with the threads of Empowerment, Creativity, Innovation, Peace, Harmony, and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations.
