Every day, elderly parents are left alone on the streets, at train stations, or even outside temples. Many are sick, struggling with age-related problems, and have no money or family to turn to. Some suffer for weeks or months before anyone notices their pain. The heartbreaking truth? They were abandoned by their own families.Although Indian law requires children and relatives to care for senior citizens, many elders still face neglect, abuse, and abandonment. The problem is only getting worse.But there is hope. Our dedicated NGO partners work day and night to rescue these forgotten elders. They provide safe shelter, medical care, nutritious meals, and most importantly—love and respect. Through old age homes across the country, our partners give these seniors a chance to live their remaining years with dignity, comfort, and peace.You can make a difference. Your donation will help our NGO partners:<ul><li>Rescue homeless elders from the streets</li><li>Provide shelter, food, and medical care</li><li>Restore their faith in humanity with kindness and support</li></ul>No elder should spend their final years alone and suffering. Your generosity can give them a fresh start. Donate today and help an abandoned senior citizen find safety, care, and hope.

Help Disabled Children with Shelter & Care

65-year-old Shakuntala completely depends on our partner NGO, Share and Care, for her food requirements, as she has no one else to take care of her. “When my only child was young, my husband Nadesan died. It was just me and my young son. After my son got married, he left me to stay with his in-laws, and I was alone. I am old, have pain in my legs, knees, shoulders and my entire body so I cannot work as I once did. But the food rations such as the nuts, lentils, wheat flour and rice I receive from Share and Care help me tremendously and I can eat well every day,” she says. Share and Care helps hundreds of abandoned grandparents, most of them being elderly women. The senior citizens belong to tribal communities and have limited access to necessities such as food and medicines to stay alive and well. This Shivratri, you can help with food and other essentials. Support them.

They suffer from hunger, sight and hearing failure, diabetes, high blood pressure and other medical conditions. As they cannot work and support themselves because of old age, they cannot afford medicines or even clothing. So, they remain poor and alone. Share and Care’s mission Since 1984, Share and Care has been caring for disadvantaged groups of people, including elderly parents who have been living in poverty after being abandoned by their children. The founders, a couple named Carmel and Arokiasamy, aim to eliminate poverty and the suffering of the poor through social welfare programs and education. To achieve this mission, Share and Care runs a program in Chennai and also a village in Tiruvallur, where the 400 elderly live. This program ensures that every month, the 400 senior citizens have dry food rations, medicines and medical care, clothes, physiotherapy, geriatric counselling and other services to nurture them back to good physical health. Need for the fundraiserOne of the founders, Carmel Arokiasamy, shares that the abandoned elderly parents who live in extreme poverty without food or anyone to care for them constantly think about their children and ask, “Did we do something wrong?” Arokiasamy shares that from the time their children are born, they take care of them in such a special way. But when their children abandon them, they weep and cannot stop thinking about them. While dealing with this emotional distress, they are also suffering from hunger and disease. But cannot afford food and medicines. Donate now to help Share and Care provide the abandoned elderly with dry food rations, medical supplies, a medical and eye camp, counselling, clothes, blankets and recreational activities to live their lives with a positive outlook, despite their circumstances.Your donation can provide these elderly parents with their most basic and urgent needs. “Please support our work because this is for the elderly parents who are in great need. These grandparents are bedridden. They need care, love and support”.Donate to this fundraiser by Give, India’s largest online donation platform, to support Share and Care in their mission to provide food, medicines, counselling and personal care to 400 abandoned grandparents living in poverty.
