Our dream village – Snehan Gramam

Snehan Gramam: A Sanctuary of Dignity, Nature, and Second Chances

Imagine a clean, smiling grandpa—once homeless—opening the gate to welcome you. You stand in awe before a vibrant, eco-friendly haven called Snehan Village. The air is fragrant with blooming flowers. Fruit trees sway gently in the breeze. Grandmas harvest organic vegetables for the day’s meal, while others tend to goats, cows, and country chickens with quiet joy. This is not a dream—it’s a vision in motion.

Snehan Village is a self-sustaining, eco-friendly community being built in Pondicherry for homeless, elderly, and disabled individuals who have been cast aside. Nestled on two acres of lush farmland, the village will feature shelter homes with coconut-leaf thatched roofs and natural ventilation. Residents will sleep in clean beds, store their belongings in cheerful cupboards, and enjoy proper sanitation facilities.

But Snehan Village is more than comfort—it’s healing. There will be indoor and outdoor games, a reading room with newspapers and television, and spaces for storytelling and laughter. Professional counselors will offer emotional support, while trained nurses provide medical care in a dedicated health room.

Every resident will be encouraged to participate in meaningful work—organic farming, animal care, and other income-generating activities that foster independence and pride. A special wing will house the old and sick who need permanent care, especially those abandoned by their families.

Snehan’s mission is to empower, rehabilitate, and—where possible—reunite families. Through every activity, we affirm their worth, celebrate their humanity, and restore their dignity.

With your generous support, Snehan Village will become a living testament to compassion—a place where no one is forgotten, and everyone is home.
