KCWA funded the project with an amount of Rs.12.4 Lakhs towards completion of the project. An additional support of IRS 3.7 Lakhs was extended in the year 2017.

The centre was introduced to support differently abled children. Parents of these children are poor & marginalized and mainly daily wage earners/cooli workers. Due to the low income they are unable to fulfil the needs of their children.

Daya began with fifteen special needs children and now within the span of eight years it has 150 special needs children. It has nine special educators, two physio, speech and hearing therapists. Many have improved in health & hygiene and developed their skills in reading and writing. The centre has three regular drivers and five assistants to help the children. They also provide free transportation for these children. Children are served with daily morning break-fast, nutritious lunch and evening milk & dry fruits.


On this memorable occasion, vice president Arun Jossy D’Souza, general secretary Reena Wilma Pereira, auditor Kevin Preetham D’Souza and education fund coordinator Veena Serrao were present and handed over the cheque to the director Fr Vinod Mascarenhas.
