I am associated with Udayan Care since 2005 at Kurukshetra..First we began USF programme where 11 meritorious girls from poor socio-economic status were awarded Udayan Shalini Fellowship and within two years Udayan Care started its Ghar with 10 girls Abandoned /Orphaned). I feel blessed to play a constructive role in the lives of 167 Udayan Shalini Fellows (USFs) receiving education in Kurukshetra and around i.e. Ladwa, Shahbad and Ismilabad. In Udayan Ghar, we are parenting our girls..As a Professional I have used RTE for my girls and got them admitted in age-appropriate classes..They really excelled and made us feel proud of them. Within a span of three years most of them have completed the education of 5/6 years. They all receiving education in the best schools of Kurukshetra.It is great so see them developing so well. Udayan Shalini Fellows also play a very active role in their lives. I feel so fortunate to be associated with Udayan Care and be a member of U Care Family..We certainly have capability to give role models for our society. MAY GOD GUIDE US THROUGH OUT!

My wife Ms. Saroj Kapoor and myself Professor(Dr) B.S.Kapoor have been associated with the teaching programme at the school and University level respectively.After our retirement we decided to join some Organization engaged in running the programme of upliftment of the underpriviledged children.This is how we came in contact with Udayan Care Organization running a programme,viz., Udayan Shalini Fellowship(USF)"---bringing the girl students into the main stream of the Society.The central theme of UC has been to make such children self confidant and standing up to face challenges in life. Both of us have been carrying out our duties as mentor-parents for the past ten years or so.What we have enjoyed the most is the total dedication of a team of committed people under the able guidance of individuals likes of Dr.Kiran modi, Dr.Vikram Dutt and others having a much broader vision ahead. The way UC/UFS has evolved during the years has been really amazing.We have seen girls, some of them belonging to first-generation school going ones,joining colleges. Some of them got admitted to the Medical/Engineering streams as well. Three years back, an attempt was made to extend the UFS Scheme to the college-going girls as well.The responsse was good and the results were very encouraging.Some of the fellows got selected for courses like MCA,M.Sc. biotechnology, B.Ed. etc. Unfortunately, this programme of financial assistance to the college-going girls students had to be withdrawn, perhaps, due to paucity of funds. Besides,through "Udyan Ghars"the Organization has been trying to provide a family-environment to the orphans and the underpriviledged children.A commendable efforts!Various events & social Programmes are organised as means to make the fellows aware of the social problems, and to have some fun as well. To sum up, what the Organization needs the most,besides the FUNDS of course, is the availability of dedicated and professional personnel to make the programme a more successful and meaningful too.

I HAVE BEEN OBSERVING THE UDAYAN CARE FOR QUITE SOMETIME, AND KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ASSOCIATED WITH IT, ON HONORARY BASIS, AND FOR THE CAUSE OF PHILANTHROPY. THERE IS A CONSENSUS AMONG ALL OF US THAT THE ASSOCIATION IS REALLY DOING A COMMENDABLE JOB, AND NEEDS FULL SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT. ITS EFFORTS HAVE YIELDED GOOD RESULTS, AND IT IS POSITIVELY INFLUENCING LIVES OF THOUSANDS OF DOWNTRODDENS. THE BEST PART OF THE ASSOCIATION IS THAT IT FOLLOWS THE NORMS OF ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY, AND HENCE ITS CREDIBILTY IS MANY LEVELS HIGHER THAN OTHER CSOs. I CONVEY MY BEST WISHES TO ITS MANAGEMENT AND VOLUNTEERS WORKING FOR UDAYAN CARE. ---YOGESH BAWEJA y_baweja@yahoo.com

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
It has been rendering unique service in that it not only provides shelter to abandoned or lost children, it also educates them and gives them honourable life. It is like opening doors of life. I have not come across anything like this in other organisations engaged in childcare. May they progress rapidly and ensure great life to the unfortunates.

Well to start with, let it be known that i have not worked with Udayan Care but being a journalist by training whose core area of interest is development issues and Environment, I have been silently monitoring painstaking efforts of quite a few non profits both in metropolis and small pockets of India that are doing remarkable job and spreading smiles. Udayan care happens to be just one of them. With their programmes like Udayan Shalini Fellowship(USF), they have been successfully integrating a good amount of girl students into the mainstream society. And its not just integrating them but also making them self dependent, thats where the challenge lies.The beauty of this non profit lies in the fact that they have been doing remarkable job without beating drums about it. The efforts to carry out meaningful change to the lives of less privileged have been done in the most effective and honest manner.There have these girls from USF who have gone to engineering colleges, got great jobs and taken care of girls in USF with their own hard earned money. Thats the cycle of success that Udayan care has set in society. My heartful good wishes for the non profit from both as a journalist and as a human being. Goodluck....Udayan Care...you have a long way to go....

Udayan Care is one of the few organizations working on the issue of Children and yet having a limited number of children being served (for the beginners). A closer look inside, unlike many organizations which flaunt their strength by the sheer number of beneficiaries like herds, Udayan Care stands apart. What sets it apart is its commitment and quality of care which is wholistic and integrative in approach and impact. The organization has always maintained a focused vision of providing FAMILY to the orphan and disadvantaged children. Distinguishably, it has stood true to its vision and purpose with its tenacity and best of endeavours. The first batches of Udayan Care children who joined the family in its early days, have graduated to the regular and independent lives. Some have got married. Many have got employed. Surprisingly, with reputed employers and organizations. The children not only study at "big" schools like DPS and Sanskriti schools but, it has set new precedents by sending its child(ren) to attain education and courses outside India too. Hats off to Udayan Care. Anything for the sweet children at Udayan Care :)

I was excited to teach painting to the girls who had interest in painting and drawing.Four of the girls learnt the art forms seriously.They would look forward for the next session and always welcome me with bright smile. I was amazed to see the way these children are taken care by their mentor mothers and staff. I always found them very well behaved and well mannered.'Udayan care'relly takes care... It was a memorable experience for me.

I have been closely involved with UdayanCare since its inception. Having worked in poverty alleviation and international development for over twenty years, I was and still am so pleased with UdayanCare for its noble vision of empowering abandoned children and giving them the care and nurturing they need until they are able to face life with confidence and optimisn. What impresses me most about UdayanCare is its transparency and integrity. Around the world, I have seen and worked with NGOs and other organizations that do good, but often a lot of donor funding is wasted and very little reaches the actual beneficiaries. In UdayanCare, every penny is diverted for the cause it stands for: welfare of its children and other helpless young girls and boys. I have watched its growth from a hardly-known small outfit to what it is today, spreading its wings all over Delhi and beyond. The homes under UdayanCare have thrived under the efficient and selfless leadership of Dr. Kiran Modi, who I have known since 1980. The team of dedicated and loving volunteers and kind and caring staff and hordes of well-wishers make it a unique organization, one of its kind. I can say with confidence that UdayanCare is one of the best organizations I have come across in my career which has spanned several continents and over seventy countries. The children at UdayanCare are a proof of what they have accomplished. If I had to select the best NGO/organization dedicated to a noble cause, I would undoubtedly select UdayanCare!!

Udayan Care welcomed me with warm and welcome arms eg. by showing me around, offering me a place to sleep and answering all my questions. After our meeting our contact has been very stable and informative. I am still very impressed with the values of the organisation and to see how happy the children were,
