Appeal

1 in 8 children in India in the age group of 2–9 years have or are at risk of developmental disabilities such as autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, and others. This translates to over 50 million children with or at risk of disabilities in India. Out of these, not even a quarter have access to quality care.

Since its inception, Ummeed has provided 1,52,000+ direct clinical services to more than 15,500 children and families at its center and trained 11,200 professionals (doctors, therapists, teachers, and community workers) and over 5,550 caregivers from all over India and several low-income countries. Ummeed has reached over 5,60,000 children through these trainings.

Over 80 % of children and families served annually are from low-income backgrounds and receive significant fee concessions. All trainings conducted by Ummeed are free of cost.

As a not-for-profit organization, Ummeed relies heavily on the generosity of individuals and organizations. Your donation would make a world of difference. We look forward to your support!

The funds raised through Tata Mumbai Marathon will be used to support Ummeed's clinical work, training efforts, advocacy and research work, administration costs, shared services-related costs, and IT implementation costs.
