Missionaries of Charity (Mother Teresa Centres)
The Missionaries of Charity, founded by Mother Teresa in 1950, has been providing essential services and support to the underprivileged and vulnerable populations in India for several decades.
Their work encompasses various areas such as healthcare, education, and assistance to those in need. Here is a brief report on the Missionaries of Charity’s work in India:
Tulsi Trust in the past supported the construction of five such centres. One centre in Mumbai (Shanti Daan), one at Navi Mumbai (Prem Daan), two centres at Pune, Wakad and Chinchwad area and one at Goa. Tulsi Trust continued its support to four centres in Mumbai and three centres in Pune. Tulsi Trust generally gives support for construction, repairing, painting, equipment, medical support, etc. Usually, the centre in charge shares its needs and then we ask them to get the quotations from the appropriate vendor through their contacts.
Tulsi Trust is now supporting 7 projects:
1 Shanti Daan, MoC, Borivali, Mumbai
2 Prerana Bhavan, MoC, Wakad, Pune
3 Mother Teresa Home, Pimpri, Pune

Jeevan Anand Sanstha (JAS)
JAS is a public charitable organisation founded in 2013, dedicated to serving the destitute, orphans, physically and mentally challenged individuals, and senior citizens. With 10 centres across Mumbai, Maharashtra, and Goa, JAS provides food, shelter, and development well-being to those in need. The JAS team works closely with roadside destitutes, focusing on temporary rehabilitation. Individuals with severe wounds or medical emergencies are brought to the their Day/Night Shelters in Khar (male) and Santacruz (female). There, they receive immediate care, nutritious meals, and assistance in locating their families. If no family members can be traced, JAS explores long-term rehabilitation options, transferring individuals to permanent homes like Samarth Aashram in Virar
or Sanvita Aashram in Kudal, Sindhudurg. JAS also focuses on the welfare of children at its Kudal Aashram, offering both shelter and educational support to foster their growth and development.
