Orphanages in Gujarat | Anath Ashram | Donations | Adoptions

What are Orphanages or Anath Ashrams?

An orphanage ( Anath Ashram in Hindi/Gujarati ) is defined as "An Institution that houses children whose parents are deceased or whose whereabouts are unknown." The term is generally considered outmoded in the United States(For NRIs), although it is frequently used to describe institutions abroad, where it is a more accurate term, since the word orphan has a different definition in international adoption.An orphanage is a residential institution devoted to the care of large numbers of children.

Other residential institutions for children can be called group home, children's home, refuge, rehabilitation center, night shelter, or youth treatment center.

Mahipatram Rupram Ashram - Orphanage in Gujarat

-->

Mahipatram Rupram Ashram - Ahmedabad

A Profile

Established on a humanitarian ground for more than a century ago,the Mahepatram Rupram Ashram is one the largest and the oldest orphanages in the country.The ashram was founded on December 17^th 1892 in sacred memory of a great social reformist Late Mahipatram Rupram Nilkanth.Started on a small footing at panchuva with only seven inmates,it flourished over the years into a large institution and has grown into a huge monlith humming with multifarious activities,mainly working as a protective institute for deserted women and orphaned children who are given shelter and training for future independent life.The trust was registered under Societies Registration Act(1949) and Public Charitable Trust Act F/45 (1953)

The ashram was shifted on August 18,1899 to its present spacious premises through the efforts of many dedicated workers and support of the generous donors.The history and growth of Ashram revel relentless efforts,vision and commitment of some the pioneering personalities who have placed ashram on the forefront of our society.

The ashram has become the true symbol of motherly care,affection and protection bringing hope and happiness to thousands of rejected and miserable women and childrens.

It is matter of pride for the ashram that our national swalwarts such as Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel paid their esteemed visit to the ashram.

Over the years the ashram has gained its name and reputation as a welfare institution.The dedicated services of the staff were duly recognized by the government of gujarat,for its best performance in this area.

The ashram was awarded the state's “Child Welfare Award” for the year 1986.The award consisted of cash prize of Rs 25,000 as well as a certificate of merit.

The Ashram again added a new feather to its cap by getting a Certificate Of Excellence for its most commendable activity in the field of the Welfare of Destitute women in 1991 by government of gujarat.The award consisted of Rs 1,00,000/-

Aims and Objective

The ashram was founded with following Aims and Objectives :-

1.To protect,to nurse and to bring up new born children and infants abandoned by society and to provide them shelter till they become major.

2.To provide facilities to the helpless,blind,lame and handicapped children,subject to accomadation and finance help with ashram.

3.To rescue,protect and give psychological support to the rejected,homeless and exploited women of the society and their children

4.To provide facilities for secret deliveries and give shelter to pregnant maidens who have become victims of circumstances.

5.To give shelter to deserted women and widows till they need support and to impart to them training in some occupational skill so that they become self supporting.

6.To look after various other needs of children and to engage them in creative activities.

7.To establish,run and maintain educational institutions and other centers of vocational training for progress and development of the inmates of the Ashram.
