SANDESH is a Bangalore-based Registered Charitable Trust that provides a nurturing, home-like day care facility for individuals of all ages living with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The community opens its doors to those with severe and profound conditions who often don’t have a lot of opportunities. Sandesh tailors its programs to help every member unlock their unique, creative and productive potential, by respecting each individual's limitations while gently challenging them to expand their learning. Ultimately, the trust is dedicated to fostering a deep sense of love, comfort, and belonging, ensuring these valued members of our society can lead a dignified life.
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. We work hand-in-hand with individuals and their families across Karnataka, from the bustling city of Bengaluru to more remote communities, to co-design solutions that honour their unique aspirations and strengths..

HOW SANDESH IS DIFFERENT
be careful our joy is contagious
Sandesh is not an Institution, it’s a community and that’s the biggest difference when compared to other facilities in the city. Sandesh is a place which gives importance to them and their liking. Here they are able to voice their choices at work, play and leisure time. Individuals here are challenged and given targets to reach their potential. We also do frequent evaluations and meetings in order to support them to grow and widen their expectations. At Sandesh, equality is not just a value, it is a way of life. There are no uniforms, and everyone, including guests and visitors, shares meals together as one community. Everyone here works together as equals, we don’t rely on outside help or staff for maintenance. From daily operations to cleaning, each member takes personal responsibility for our shared space, finding growth and fulfilment in caring for our environment and completing our work. We also welcome 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. We are a proud community.
