Tender Home for Anawim Rest & Awakening Society

Established in 2002 as a night shelter at St. Patrick’s School campus, THARA evolved into a full-fledged home for street children. In 2011, a dedicated facility was built on a five-acre campus in New Bowenpally, Secunderabad, accommodating up to 150 children. Over the years, THARA has provided a safe environment, holistic education, and rehabilitation services to children in distress.
