The Idea of Anand Vruddhashram (The Free Old Age Home)
When Tara Sansthan started out to organize eye camps in far-off villages, it was noticed that there were many helpless and poor old people who had no support from any quarter. So we decided to open an old age home for such aged people who are destitute, lonely and helpless, who either do not have any body in their family to care for them or who have a family but are not treated well and are insulted and humiliated.
Thus just 3 months after establishment of Tara Sansthan's first eye hospital, AnandVruddhashram was also opened on 3rd February, 2012to provide relief to these helpless and suffering people with accommodation, food, clothing, medical care, entertainment and a homely atmosphere - all absolutely Free-of-Cost in the Old Age Home.Although the idea did not attract many villagers but many upper middle class urban people started flocking the old age each home.
The Sansthan runs free of cost old age homes called “Anand Vrudhashram” to take care of elderly people who are destitute, lonely and helpless. The Vrudhashram provides with accommodation, food, clothing, medical care, entertainment and a homely atmosphere—all absolutely free-of-cost to the residents. Currently, there are 6 old age homes (3 in Udaipur & 1 in Prayagraj) are build and in operation by us. Besides 1 Government Old Age Home in Balicha Udaipur and 1 in Varanasi ( called Mumukshu Bhawan ( in Kashi Vishwanath Corridor) are being managed by Tara Sansthan on contract.
Tara Sansthan, an NGO with a resolve of service to the suffering poor people, was founded in 2011 by Mrs. Kalpana Goyal d/o Shree Kailash Manav the founder of Narayan Sewa Sansthan (Trust), Udaipur. Humanitarian activities of the organization are as follows:
