Sri Arunodayam is home for destitute children. These children are either mentally retarded or spastic and abandoned by their family. A 24 hour helpline along with the support of the Police network direct such children from different parts of the country to find refuge in the loving hands of Sri Arunodayam.

Sri Arunodayam provides them food, clothing, shelter and medical facilities with the warmth of a home. These children are engaged in varied activities depending upon their abilities and imparted education, which gradually enables them to outgrow their limitations. This helps to improve the quality of life to a certain extent.

The trauma caused by deprival of love and affection from their kin, the fear and insecurity arising within, when they were abandoned is beyond comprehension. At Sri Arunodayam, these are gradually mitigated by the love, care, warmth, attention and patience bestowed on such special children.
