About Our NGO

Since 1991, when it was registered to support families, Kutumba has worked with children and women with mental and physical challenges. Over the past 30 years, Kutumba was able to care for more than 50 children with intellectual disabilities and over 850 young women with physical challenges.

The women who came through our program are today financially independent and emotionally stable. Our group foster care program provided safe housing, good nutrition, and psychosocial support for young girls from districts across Karnataka and other states in the South.

The residential program for young women with physical challenges ensured that they were heard. Coming from various parts of South India and most often from rural India, their diffidence was apparent. The Kutumba staff spent quality time with them on a regular basis to help build healthy self-esteem and confidence
