The Sikh Humanitarian Society (SHS) is a free education centre for girls. It was established in the Rohini area of west Delhi at C-1/54, Sector 16, Rohini, Delhi-110085. There are 125 girl and 50 boy students, under the age of ten, presently availing of the opportunity to learn Hindi, Sanskrit, Punjabi, English, Cutting and Tailoring and Computer Education. Training in Shastriya Sangeet includes learning to play musical instruments, like the harmonium and the tabla. Arrangements have also been made to provide free coaching to regular school-going girl students of classes V through VII.

Well-qualified and trained lady teachers and a music teacher have been engaged to prepare the girls for the class X and the 10+2 examination from the National Open School, Delhi, and also a Diploma in Shashtriya Sangeet from the Punjabi University, Patiala.

All the students are provided free uniforms. In winter, the uniform includes sweaters and shawls. Shoes, stationery, books, money for school and university registration and examination fee, etc. is gratis.

To meet with the growing demand for new admission seekers, one more free education centre has been opened at C-1/34 Sector-16, Rohini, Delhi-110085.

At present this is a non-residential Institute, therefore the above-mentioned privileges can be availed only by students from the vicinity, but it is the ambition of the society to setup a free residential institute as early as possible.

Besides running the educational centre, SHS also hosts a free Bibi Bhan ji Homeopathic Dispensary to look after the health needs of all sections of society, irrespective of caste and creed.
