Our organization is registered under the Societies' Registration Act of 1860. It was set up in 1980, and since then has been raising resources to protect the rights of India's elderly and provide relief to them through various interventions. It voice the needs of India's 90 million (current estimate) "grey" population, and directly impact the lives of lakhs of elders through our services every year.
