Our Story

Umang Gauravdeep Welfare Society is a dedicated non-profit organisation that strives to empower divyangjan (differently-abled individuals) to live better, meaningful lives. We envision a world where every individual is respected, supported, and given the opportunity to grow, thrive, and shine with dignity.

Since 2006, we have been supporting children with autism, hearing impairment, intellectual disabilities, and physical challenges. We help them learn, grow, and live with confidence through education, therapy, and life-skill training.

Through our comprehensive programs at G.D. Rainbow School and various therapy centers, we provide inclusive schooling, vocational training, cultural programs, and employment opportunities to ensure every child reaches their full potential.
