Aadarana

Aadarana is the most recent project our chapter has taken on. Aadarana is a grassroots project located in Hydrabad, India. It initially started as a boys orphanage and now has expanded to include a girls home as well. However due to the social norms of the Indian culture most of the donations made to this organization are made to the boys orphanage. Asha San Diego has committed to supporting the girls orphanage for a minimum of three years.
