Inspired by Don Boscos' quote "look after the poor young",The Salesian sisters shouldered the responsibility and started Navajeevana . Seed for this fruit bearing organization was sown on the 16th of July 1995 and today there are approximately 150 girls of age groups varying from 3 years to 25 residing here .Girls rescued either by the police or volunteers from horrifying situations,either run away form home due to serious issues or lost , are brought here and given a safe shelter here after government approval.
These children within whom a volcano of talents is being suppressed are put on the right path here .They are not denied of any opportunity .They are sent to schools such as GKBMS , Corporation high school and Nirmala English school for formal education.The interested ones are also given training in fields such as swimming, karate,dance and music.
One of the Members of this organisation ,Sister Jacintha said "With no discrimination, we accept these kids who come from different religious backgrounds. We all are a part of the same family. all we want at the end of the day is not publicity for this organisation. Any form of help to these girls is welcome. "
This organisation aims to sculpts the raw mold into beautiful sculptures. If you have a doubt about the fact whether these girls who once did not have shelter on their head nor clothes to wear are capable of so much ,all you have to do is visit this place and see it yourself .
