Rajkhariar ( Western Orissa )
This is the first balabhavan Missions India opened, in 1998. Started as a feeding centre for children from drought-hit regions like Kalahandi, Nuvapada, Bolangir etc. of Orissa, it later grew into a balabhavan. Most of the children here are good at their studies and are talented in various areas like sports and arts etc.
Bhubaneswar (Orissa)
Here 22 children, mostly from slums, are taken care of. In fact, it was started in Khurda in 1999 after the devastating super cyclone hit the coastal areas of Orissa, which rendered thousands homeless and orphaned.
Bhuj ( Gujarat )
Bhuj is located in the earthquake devastated Kuchch where hundreds of children were left orphaned and homeless. To help such children Missions India started a day-care centre here. Later in 2004, we opened a balbhavan with nine children under the care of a committed missionary couple.
Rajkot ( Gujarat )
At Rajkot, in the slums we had set up a day care centre for children. Most of the kids here were either dropouts or having an aversion for school. They earned their livelihood through begging, cleaning up trains or committing petty thefts. Our missionary became concerned of these kids and wanted to do something to help them. His dream came true when Missions India started a balbhavan here on the 15 th of June, 2005. Now we have 18 children here who find life meaningful.
Rayalseema (Andhra Pradesh)
20 children from different parts of the state are staying here in this balbhavan started in May, 2006 and attending schools. Out of the 18 children four are pure orphans and the rest have nobody to take care of them except their helpless mothers.
Ashabhavan (Missions India Girls' Home)
'Ashabhavan' is the exclusive home for destitute girl children. In many parts of our country girl children endure discrimination and ill-treatment even from family members. More so, in poor families they are denied education and are constrained to do the household works even at a tender age. Not to mention the destiny of orphaned girl children. In our Ashabhavan 13 such girls are sheltered and provided education.
