Lives rebuilt at Majha Ghar.
I had forgotten what a warm meal felt like. Now I have a family of two hundred.
They didn’t just give me a bed. They gave me back my dignity.
Every morning we do yoga together. I never thought I’d laugh again at this age.
Majha Ghar Foundation operates as Apna Ghar Ashram in Pune — the same organisation, its on-the-ground name.
