We are committed to transparency of operations and provide frequent updates to our donors.
SOFKIN aims to create loving homes for underprivileged children and provide them with the basic amenities like food, clothing, shelter, value based education, and - most important - love and care in abundance.
SOFKIN is a non-profit organization registered in New Jersey, USA, and Hyderabad, India, to support the upbringing of underprivileged children, striving to make a difference in their lives.
We practice our belief by establishing and supporting SOFKIN homes for children. The children are not only given food, shelter, clothing, medical and education facilities, but are also given a secured home where they are cared for, guided and nurtured by the housemothers. The house mothers are battered and destitute women that are trained in cooking and caring for children, evaluated for efficiency, character, and attitude before being placed as housemothers in these homes. Each home will have 10-15 children with two housemothers. This operating model not only benefits children but also the women to be self sufficient.
SOFKIN is currently supporting over over 90 children in five homes in Pune and Hyderabad, India. The children inducted into SOFKIN homes go to regular schools and have been performing well in both academics and extracurricular activities. They won many awards in various school and district level competitions. They are the example of positive difference one can bring into the lives of these children by giving love and care in a secure environment.
