About

    Vellore, Tamil Nadu

  • Since

    2006

The Hope House aims to nurture and empower marginalised children to become successful and responsible citizens. Mr Ruby Nakka, the founder, grew up Read more in a children's home in the united Andhra Pradesh for 12 years and it was his childhood desire to help children the the way he was helped. Mr. Nakka was living in the United States with his family that consisted of two adopted girls. It was his girls who reminded his family about the children in need of care and protection in India and also inspired him to forgo their well-paid jobs in the healthcare industry to relocate to India to start the Hope House. He in turn inspired two of his best friends (Manoah and Thomas) to join him in this endeavour. Currently, Hope House offers institutional and non-institutional services for the children. Hope House partners with the Government of India and other like-minded entities such as the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), Christian Medical College (CMC), and Railway Children.
