Dear Friends and Supporters,

We are inspired by the resilience and determination of the communities we serve. Despite various challenges, life in the villages remains vibrant, with people embracing opportunities for growth and development.

Our commitment to the well-being of all villagers, particularly those with disabilities, remains steadfast. We continue to work tirelessly to ensure inclusive development that leaves no one behind. Over the years, SADHANA has achieved significant milestones in addressing critical issues related to the inclusion of disability, malnutrition, early childhood education, and mental health in underserved areas. This ongoing work exemplifies our organization’s commitment to reaching those in need.

Our journey has been made possible by the active concern and generous support of our funding partners, including Madre Teresa di Calcutta (Vicenza, Italy); John & Kay Buttigieg (Malta); Deaf Child Worldwide, UK; RJC Operations, Malta; Instituto Secolare, Italy; High Commission of Malta; American India Foundation (AIF), USA; Humanity & Inclusion (Earlier Handicap International), France; European Union (EU); and countless friends in Italy, Malta, and India. Your contributions have added depth and purpose to our work.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the villagers, families, and Panchayati Raj Institutes across the 17 Gram Panchayats we serve. We also appreciate the collaboration of local authorities and government departments, which has allowed us to make a significant impact. Our sincere thanks go out to friend NGOs, alliance partners, and networks that have supported our cause. Your cooperation and support have been instrumental in our endeavours. Together, we have achieved remarkable results and created lasting change.

On behalf of persons with disabilities, their families, and the entire SADHANA team, I express our deepest appreciation to our friends and well-wishers. Together, we look forward to continuing this journey of positive change.

With warm regards,

Ranjit Kumar Mahapatra

Director/Secretary
