individual. “Udayan” is a Sanskrit word meaning “Eternal Sunshine”. Like the sunlight nourishes

life on earth, our programs are designed to nurture and strengthen individuals and their

families.

Udayan Ghar Program focuses on creating a family-like environment for children in need of

parental care. Children grow up under the guidance of mentor parents and utmost care is taken

for individual attention for every child. The Ghar program also extends into Aftercare to cater

to young adults, who on turning 18 move out of childcare homes.

Udayan Shalini Fellowship Program is a one-of-a-kind initiative that provides financial

assistance, personality development, and employment opportunities to deserving and talented

girls from weaker socio-economic backgrounds. The end objective of the program is to create

educated, aware and confident women who take charge of their lives and strengthen their birth

families as well as their own families.

youth and women close to home such that they can contribute to the family income, lessening the

burden on the primary earner of the family whilst enhancing their independence

Pradesh in partnership with UNICEF, to build, operate and hand over projects for organizing

other Child Care Institutions.
