Child Haven opened its first home in Dhanera, Banaskantha district, Gujarat in 1985. In 1989, the home was moved to a cottage in a mango orchard in Changa. The use of the cottage was donated to Child Haven by the family of the late owner, Sindhuben Joshi, a beloved social worker with the women and children in and around the village of Changa.
The home was later moved to rented premises in Gandhinagar, capital of Gujarat State, "the greenest capital" city in the world.
We have 30 boys and 19 girls children ranging in ages from two to sixteen. They attend Gujarati language school and are tutored in English and other subjects in the home. Judging by the smiles on the faces, it must've been a special meal.
Taking care of some laundry - a never ending job at Child Haven Gandhinagar.
GUJARAT, Work is moving forward on the two buildings (one for girls, one for boys) in the city of Meu on our two acres of land. The Home with 30 boys and 19 girls will move from its present location in two rented houses in Gandhinagar.
GUJARAT. One building is taking shape with the second floor poured. The second building is racing to catch up. The complex is being built by Deepak and Christine Kamra in honour of his parents, Santosh and Ramma Kamra.
The buildings were finished in late 2014, out in the country, near the town of Meu, near the larger city of Mehsana.
