Sri Arunodayam is a Chennai-based home for abandoned children with intellectual disabilities, founded in 2002. Referred through government and child protection systems, each child is welcomed with love, provided holistic care, and supported toward rehabilitation. Today, we care for 125 children. As a residential and rehabilitation centre, we offer lifelong support through safe shelter, nutrition, medical care, and therapy-enabling every child to live with dignity and hope.
The Need Children with intellectual disabilities are highly vulnerable and depend on continuous medical care. At Sri Arunodayam, 40 children require seizure medication, 65 need psychiatric support, and all 125 depend on treatment for everyday illnesses. Consistent access to medicines and specialised care is essential for their safety and well-being. Your support ensures uninterrupted, life-sustaining care for every child.
Sponsoring medical care for children with intellectual disabilities creates lasting impact. With consistent treatment, children experience better health, fewer complications, and improved quality of life. Proper care supports their cognitive and emotional development, helping them learn and grow. It also builds a more inclusive society that values and supports every child with dignity and compassion.
Sustained medical care can transform the future of children with intellectual disabilities. Improved health and stability support better development, increased independence, and greater participation in daily life. Over time, this reduces complications and long-term dependency. It also contributes to a more inclusive society where every child has the opportunity to live with dignity, purpose, and hope.
