Founders are Late Smt. Sanjivani Raykar, Late Shri. G.A Damle, Late Dr. Shivram Athavale, Shri. Nijasure along with a few other philanthropists, who intensely felt a need for starting a care and rehabilitation institute for the orphan, abandoned and destitute children.

The main objective of the Trust is to 'care, protect and empower destitute and deprived members of the society with special emphasis on orphan/ destitute children and marginalized unskilled youth'.

Often we receive newborn within hours of delivery from Maternity Homes and we also receive infants, abandoned in public places like temples / garbage bins / railway platforms and so on brought to us by Police Department. We are recognized by Central Adoption & Resource Agency (CARA) which primarily deals with adoption of orphan, abandoned and surrendered children through its associated /recognized adoption agencies.
