About us

Chingari is working for the rehab of congenitally disabled children. Chingari now supports three hundred special children every day, providing therapies and special education, as well as lunch and transport to and from the centre. The child rehabilitation program aims to support continued treatment and education and provide a community space to physically and psychologically disabled children and young adults born into families affected by the gas and water poisoning.

When Chingari proudly marked their 10th anniversary in 2016, the founders reflected upon their incredible progress:

“We started Chingari in a single room with 15 disabled children and limited resources' said Rashida and Champa. 'The only thing we had at that point was the passion to improve the lives of congenitally disabled children born into families affected by the gas tragedy and subsequent water contamination."
