Welcome to Sandesh

Sandesh is a Registered non-profit organization established in May 30th 2008 for individuals with Intellectual and developmental disabilities. We started working actively from 2010. Sandesh means “Message”. We aim in spreading the Message of love and equality for all human beings- disregarding the abilities. Sandesh has reached out to more than 400 families. Each of them has received hope and courage to face the life with dignity and smile.History of Sandesh. “ Dreams do come true” Sandesh is a witness, Sandesh, has been a dream for many years with the mission of ’Creating a beautiful community that focuses on becoming ripples of joy in every way possible, for all who get in touch with this community. Aiming in empowering and giving a dignified life to all members of Sandesh. Sometimes a leap of faith in the unknown is needed, Jenny shared her dreams with her husband Seby and close friends Anil and Nupur, and it was well accepted, together giving it more energy. Everything was slow in the beginning as the right support was needed. And this took time. Lots of talking, learning, research, reaching out to people, other NGO’s in the same sector. A lot had to be done before the project started its real work. Kavita and Sandeep Singhal came forward as our first supporters, couple who have continued to walk this journey with us.. Without them we wouldn’t have reached where we are today. They believed in our Dream, and backed it always.

Our programs

Our organization is fundamentally dedicated to championing a world where every individual with special needs is empowered to live a life of dignity, purpose, and profound inclusion. We believe that disability is not a barrier to be overcome, but a facet of human diversity to be embraced. Our programs are meticulously designed to move beyond traditional charity, instead focusing on creating sustainable pathways to self-reliance and active community participation.

HOW SANDESH IS DIFFERENT

Sandesh is not an Institution, it’s a community and that’s the biggest difference when compared to other facilities in the city. Sandesh supports the individual in their holistic growth, a place which gives importance to them and their liking. Here they are able to voice their choices at work, at play and at leisure time. Sandesh is a place where they are also challenged and given targets to realise their potential. We also do frequent evaluations and meetings in order to support them to grow and widen their expectations. Sandesh believes in equality - there are no uniforms, and it is a place where everyone eats together. This is also expected from our guest and friends who come to visit. We are proud of our community. Everyone here works together - there are no servants here, each member takes responsibility and we see their growth and happiness in finishing a designated work. Sandesh also welcomes members with extreme poor economic background and with severe and profound disabilities. Here work and therapy has a balance and social integration is given importance. We are an inter-religious community - we respect each other’s beliefs, all are encouraged to go deeper in our own faith, while respecting others.
