Vikasam Seva Foundation is an initiative led by like-minded professional social workers, with over 80 years of combined experience in Education, Care, and Support Services for Children with Disabilities (referred to as Divyang), child rights, corporate social responsibility, and public health.

The Foundation is situated in Bantwal, a town near Mangalore city, within state of Karnataka, population of about 400,000. Bantwal is home to approximately 41,000 children aged 0-6 years, with around 3% of them having some form of disability. Sadly, these children are currently unable to access the special education they need due to lack of funding or unaffordability of private institutes. Our foundation's mission is to offer free-of-cost education to these special needs children and facilitate their holistic development. We also prioritize educating parents and teachers on identifying and effectively working with these children.

The initial years of establishing this foundation have been challenging due to insufficient support from government funding agencies. Your donation will play a crucial role in helping us lay a strong foundation and provide essential services to those in need during these formative stages.
