Every Child Deserves a Home of Love.

We work to rescue, educate, and empower the most vulnerable children and women in India. 100% of your donation goes directly to the cause.

Rescue. Rights. Rehabilitation.

Snehalaya (meaning "Home of Love") was founded in 1989 in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, India. For over three decades, Snehalaya has been a beacon of hope for the most marginalized members of society — children orphaned by HIV/AIDS, women trapped in sex trafficking, and families crushed by extreme poverty.

Snehalaya USA is the registered 501(c)(3) non-profit arm based in the United States. We exist to bridge the gap between American generosity and India's most vulnerable communities. Every dollar donated through Snehalaya USA is 100% tax-deductible and goes directly to fund life-changing programs on the ground.

"To ensure a life free from inequality, cruelty, and discrimination for every woman and child — regardless of their background, caste, or circumstances." — Snehalaya's Founding Vision
