Namaste children’s homes, increasing in number through the years, is a project that started from the very beginning of the Organization as an alternative solution to orphanages, in order to meet food, care, affection and educational needs of less fortunate children: orphans or children stemming from families that, owing to different reasons, are not able to look after them in a proper way. If not protected, such children might be sent to orphanage or end up in the street with no abode.The name of this project is ENTE VEEDU( my home).

Ente veedu  admission is usually opted with kids that have lived through the deaths of their parents, neglect or abandonment with out any discrimination of caste or creed. In such cases children are admitted in one of our homes, with the care of one mother.They are nurturing them and equipping them for life. These foster mother are looking after the children in the houses and providing needful care and attention to the education, health and character formation of the children.

Girls and boys are seperated.Girl and boys homes are recongized by the orphanage control board of Kerala.
