Appeal

Run for a Cause at TMM 2026 – Support ADHAR NGO!
Bring Smiles and Empower Lives
For over 31 years, ADHAR NGO has been a lifeline for adults with intellectual disabilities—offering them lifelong care, dignity, and a sense of belonging. Founded in 1994 by sociologist Mr. Madhavrao Gore, ADHAR supports over 435 residents across centres in Badlapur, Nashik, and the newly opened Satara branch, as well as through two partner NGOs.
ADHAR also creates lasting social impact by generating 275+ rural jobs, including 84 for women, and reaching 1,400+ lives annually across 18 Indian states.
Operating solely on donations and parents’ contributions, and with no government aid, we face a growing gap between rising costs and available resources. Despite our best efforts, this gap continues to widen as many aging parents face diminishing incomes and growing caregiving challenges.
We invite corporate teams and individual runners to join Team ADHAR at the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2026. Your participation will help us continue providing high-quality care to those who need it most.
All donations are eligible for 80G tax benefits.
Let’s run not just for fitness, but for inclusion, compassion, and lasting change.
DM us to be part of this meaningful journey!
