Mission

Care that starts in a room and grows into a movement.

Palna, run by Delhi Council for Child Welfare, provides care for abandoned and orphaned children, many of whom have developmental or medical needs. RakshaDe exists to strengthen that work with steady volunteer support and reliable fundraising.

The effort began with visits to Palna in Delhi, where support included meals, documentation, educational engagement, and daily care activities alongside staff. It has continued remotely through family-led donor engagement and fundraising.

A registered nonprofit with a clear 2026 goal: raise over $100,000 for children's care.
