About Us

Nele Foundation began its journey in August 2000 to provide residential care amidst a loving and secure environment, for underprivileged children. These children most of the time are rescued from abuse and a life of poverty.

The foundation runs 12 centers -Six in Bengaluru and two in Mysuru and one each in Tumakuru, Mandya, Hosapete and Shivamogga. The foundation has changed the lives of over 4000 children through the work done at these centers.. We are presently feeding and caring for over 400 children. At Nele, our goal and commitment are to provide a good future and better opportunities to the child. Children here experience love and individual care, establishing lifelong connections with us. Our caretakers come with rich experience and are professionally trained, thoroughly screened permanent staff who manage the centers to run with utmost care and concern.

We take great care in selecting our caretakers, ensuring they are compassionate, trustworthy, and devoted to the well-being of our children. They play a crucial role in establishing lasting connections with the children, forming bonds that extend far beyond their time at our centers.

By partnering with Nele Foundation, you can make a significant impact on the lives of these children. Join us in our mission to create a brighter tomorrow for underprivileged children, offering them a chance to break free from their past and embrace a future filled with hope and opportunities.

Your support, whether through donations or volunteering, will help us continue providing exceptional care and transforming the lives of these deserving children. Together, we can make a profound difference and empower them to thrive in a world full of possibilities.

Vision

To create a hunger-free and well-cultured society that professes highest human values.

Mission

To create an organic ecosystem which can facilitate holistic development of a child by providing a conducive environment for blossoming the 'Innate Potentialities' latent in the Child.

Backdrop

An extremely heartbreaking sight in Karnataka is to see children with torn clothes and dishevelled hair, lugging a dirty bag on their tiny shoulders, picking up rags from the streets. Devoid of parents' love and affection, basic education, and support from the society, these kids have no choice but to feed on the leftovers thrown around. There are thousands of vulnerable children in and around Bangalore and nearby districts who are devoid of similar necessities, financially and emotionally. These kids often cultivate wrong habits and turn up as anti-socials. It is estimated that the city of Bengaluru alone harbours thousands of such children. As a part of the civilized society, it is our responsibility to take care of these children.

With a mission to address the challenges faced by such children, Nele Foundation began its humanitarian work. It offers a ray of hope to destitute children like rag-pickers, beggars, orphans, any other needy and neglected towards a better life. It has touched many hearts and changed many lives.

Organizational Philosophy

SEVA is the bedrock and guiding principle of Nele.

We strive to instil this idea within all personnel of Nele.

The central focus of Nele is 'The Child', around which all activities are woven.

The founder, Sri Ajith Kumar, a gold medalist in Engineering (Electrical and Mechanical), gave away a lucrative career and chose the virtuous path of social service at the young age of 23. Born and brought up at Gudibande, near Bengaluru, he plunged into the world of social service completely.
