It was a cold morning in Varanasi. The first rays of the sun cast a golden glow over the waters of the Ganga. In a small room in the city, a few sensitive and visionary individuals were weaving a dream—

A dream where no child is deprived of their rights,

No mother looks into the eyes of her specially-abled child with despair,

And no person in society is left behind in the shadows of discrimination.

That day was not merely the registration of an organization—it was the birth of a social revolution.

• Legal Recognition: Registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 – Registration No. 972/1999-2000
• Location: Varanasi – a city rich in culture, spirituality, and history, which became the cradle of this mission.
• Dream & Purpose:
• Bring marginalized people into the mainstream
• Ensure equal opportunities for specially-abled children and disadvantaged communities
• Fight for education, healthcare, livelihoods, and a life of dignity

👉🏽 The Inspiration Behind the Foundation

Sanjeevani was born from social pain and deep human compassion.

At that time, in rural and backward areas:

• There were no therapy centers or special schools for specially-abled children
• Health and education services were almost non-existent
• Discrimination was deep-rooted, and poverty added to the suffering

Sanjeevani’s message was:

“Where life stands still, we will set it in motion again. Where hope fades, we will be the light of revival.”

👉🏽 2025 – Renewal and a New Flight

On January 6, 2025, with Registration No. R/VAR/14083/2024-2025, our identity was renewed for another five years.

This was not just a legal formality—it was a pledge to fuel the flame that has been burning for 25 years.

• Reach more remote villages
• Bring more children into the mainstream
• Empower more women economically
• Spread the message of dignity, education, and healthcare to every home

👉🏽 Symbolic Significance

• The name “Sanjeevani” – a symbol of life, energy, and regeneration
