AANCHAL (Centre for Differently Abled Children)

The project is aimed at providing training to mentally challenged children to make them self-dependent, through appropriate methods of education and help them to lead a normal life. This project was approved by DDA in 2009 and allotted 461sq.mtrs land at a very concessional rate. The society members worked very hard and generated necessary funds for the construction of the Centre. Rural Electrification Corporation of India has also supported this project by providing CSR assistance of Rs. 1.50 crores. The total project cost incurred so far is Rs. 4.00 crores, including the cost of the land.

To channelize the contribution to meet day-to-day operational expenditure of the centre, a scheme called “LOVERS OF AANCHAL” has been launched. Though one is free to contribute any amount to the centre, as per IT Act to get income tax exemption, the minimum contribution under this scheme should be Rs. 100 per month or Rs. 1200 per annum. The immediate need of the parish is financial help for the functioningAanchal Rehabilitation Centre for differently abled children.
