Kiran Society

Uttar Pradesh

Kiran Society was founded in Varanasi by a small group of people from various social, cultural, and religious backgrounds based on the idea of supporting differently-able and disadvantaged children and youngsters and enriching their talents and abilities.Shifting their base to the outer village of Modhpur, the center functions as a small village where the differently abled children receive holistic treatment through education, skills and vocational training and physical and medical rehabilitation.

Their belief in the potential of the children to lead normal lives has enabled them to encourage family involvement in assisting the children and youngsters suffering from the afflictions of polio, cerebral palsy, rickets and/or hearing impairments. Their 190 strong staff members have helped more than 110 disabled children in receiving regular therapy, 280 malnourished children receiving supplementary food and 80 admissions of differently-abled youth in training programs.

Their efforts echoed in the society when the NGO was awarded the Lokmat Samman in Lucknow, UP for educating children with disability. Their vision of empowering differently able children and young people, in partnership with their parents, by providing quality service to them without discrimination of caste, religion or financial circumstance reflects in their hard work.
