The founder of the organisation Shri. R. Balasubramanian unlike many other men did not think of any colourful careers. Having worked with different organisations, his vast experience and exposure in the field of disability rehabilitation induced him to start BAVISHYA DEEPAM in the year 1995 with a group of socially concerned people. In appreciation of his services the local panchayat gifted him with a piece of land that was properly registered. With support from likeminded people he constructed a shelter for the benefit of the 30 mentally challenged residents. The same has been recognized by the State of Tamil Nadu Government. Today, we have a good building structure with adequate facilities for dormitories, training hall, kitchen, dining area, administrative office, store rooms, recreational room with projector, rest rooms, medical room, caregiver’s rooms, roof garden, etc. with a team of dedicated staff for various activities. Now there are 53, Male, Female21, residents who are provided with shelter, food, clothing, Medicare, physiotherapy, yoga, vocational training, etc., that would strengthen their body and mind. Our service is made possible only by the support of our well-wishers and donors!!! Our heartfelt thanks to all of them and no words can show our gratitude!!!
