Velugu Society runs a residential Special School for children and an Old Age Home for women in Madanapalle which falls in the drought prone district of Chittoor, Rayalaseema Zone, Andhra Pradesh, India. A registered, charitable, non-profit service institution, we have been continuously serving the poor and underprivileged people of this largely agrarian region since 1997.
Currently we have under our care 145 children with different physical and mental developmental disabilities as well as 52 deaf children. We are also a home to 50 women seniors between the ages of 60 to 85 years.
Our services are provided free of cost. We do not have much government or institutional support and depend largely on donations from the local population, philanthropists and a few corporates. The little government aid we receive is limited to use for mentally challenged children.
