SHEOWS is an old age home working to save lives of the abandoned, destitute, and homeless elderly across Delhi NCR, and Uttar Pradesh. Starting from rescue to providing the elderly with a second home, it is a place where the elderly are medically treated, provided with comfortable accommodation, healthy and nutritious food, etc. free of cost.
The aim is to serve every destitute, orphan, needy and abandoned elderly with a strong belief of helping old aged people and spreading awareness of elders care would not only give them a new life but also reduce the cases of elder abuse in society. We believe in the notion of “Vasudeva Kutumbakam” meaning the whole world is our family which inspires us to serve every needy old aged as our own family member.
सेवा उनकी की जाया जो होवे लाचार, सेवा धरम सबसे बड़ा जीवन का आधार.
