Help Disabled Children with Shelter & Care

Save orphaned and abandoned children

Disadvantaged students face many obstacles when trying to pursue an education. The expense to go to school combined with their parents expectations for their children to work and earn a living, means many discontinue their education. This leads to poor employment options in the future.In a country like India, where the majority of the population are youths, the overall effect of this problem multiplies. Societies progress and the economies growth rate both deteriorate as so many people are uneducated. 
 We have started an initiative to support bright but underprivileged students post the 10th grade to pursue further studies in literacy; leading to employment. We cover the cost of scholarships, books, and all skill training.Each student is carefully selected based upon academic performance and economic assessments. Our volunteers visit student’s homes to get a better understanding of their financial situation. As we have such a big network of volunteers covering a vast area, we can ensure that we reach as many students as possible. 
 Through our efforts and the support of others like you, more than 5000 students have received employment through Vidya Poshak and over 4000 students have reached the next level of literacy. Also, 60 free of cost rural book banks have been opened where students can borrow books and educational material.

Orphans, semi-orphans and vulnerable children are subject to systematic deprivation covering a wide spectrum of socio-economic parameters like lack of shelter, and lack of access to health services and educational opportunities. These vulnerable children are also easy prey to all kinds of exploitation and abuse. Such children are often among the high-risk, insecure and deprived groups who are denied not only their rights as children but also their childhood. Without guidance, education and security, they head for an obscure future. They need support to steer them back to the mainstream of social life through proper education opportunities, care and rehabilitation. Children in need of care and protection face immense challenges - lack of belongingness, psychological issues, malnutrition, lack of education and access to healthcare, insecurity and a bleak future. Many of them are homeless and take to begging and crime. They are in a continuous struggle to fulfil their basic needs like shelter, food, clothing, drinking water, health care and protection.There is thus a need to augment efforts in taking care of orphans/marginalised children and providing them with a sense of belongingness, security, education, access to healthcare, care and support for their overall development. 
 We have created Ghar in a seven-storey building that houses homes for orphan/marginalised girls and the elderly all under one roof.We take care of the boarding, nutritional, education, health and personal needs of orphan/marginalised girls. They are provided with quality education in English medium schools and all other facilities that are needed to make them realise their full potential be it in academics, sports, arts and culture and to become capable to participate and compete in all activities. This will help them in pursuing their dreams, to grow into conscientious adults and to lead a life of dignity and respect in society. Ghar also houses paralysed women and the elderly. Orphans/marginalised get to grow up in the environment of a family with the attendant sense of belongingness, security, good education, a good future and love and affection.Paralysed women from the lower strata of society will be provided with skill training and mainstreamed into society. 
 Ghar is unique in her vision, concept and management. Our vision is to hold the hands of orphan/marginalised children from the lowest strata of society and help them climb the tallest mountains - to become successful people in order that they in turn will hold the hands of others and make an impact and a difference in the lives of others in times to come, to provide a family to paralysed women and empower and mainstream them and provide the elderly a healthy, content and happy life.Unique in concept since Ghar is the creation of a joint family of daughters, mothers and grandparents all residing under one roof as one big family with the attendant sense of belongingness, security and feelings.Unique in management since Ghar has been created by an Army veteran and is managed by a team of Army veterans.1. Ghar becomes a model in terms of providing residential facilities and quality care in the catchment area for orphan/marginalised girls and for their quality education and overall development.2.  Improved school retention and performance standards of children.3.  Realisation of the potential of orphan/marginalised girls in sports and extracurricular activities.4.  Mainstreaming of women with locomotive disabilities.
