History:

Mr.Isaac Arulappan is the Founder Director of DKSHA. After losing his parent at the age of 10, he was raised by Boys Town Orphanage run by the institute of Saint Gabriel Brothers. This institution was well known internationally for its education and job skills for abused and neglected children and youth. Isaac Arulappan is a Physics Graduate from St.Joseph College, Trichy. He also has a Diploma in Community Development from Coady International Institute in Canada. He was blessed to have mentors come alongside to encourage and sponsor him for further education. After graduation, he worked in several educational institutions, but his dream was to give life to orphans, semi-orphans, destitute children and women. He quit his job as Vice Principal in a school and started DKSHA 20 years ago. Isaac is married and has one son. His wife is working as a school teacher. He is earning his livelihood by working as a Project Officer in a Social Welfare project sponsored by a Canadian Agency. He is a well-known personality in the vicariate of Manaparai in Trichirapalli District. Tamilnadu South India. It is this one man’s vision which has made a world of difference for many children, women, youth and men.

On National Social Justice Day, we reaffirm our commitment to equal rights and justice for every individual. A just society is built when we choose empathy over prejudice and action over silence. Let us continue working towards a world where dignity is not a privilege, but a right.

Dear Friends, Well-Wishers & Sponsors of DKSHA,

We are pleased to inform you that after much hard work, we have safely reintegrated all the children in our care back into their family homes. Our campus is much quieter now without the laughter and chatter of the children, but our hearts are happy because they are being cared for by their loved ones.
DKSHA continues to support these children in their education as well offering household economy and health assistance to the families. They have left the campus but DKSHA is never far away, with frequent checks, ensuring their wellbeing.

Our campus is now empty (there are no children living at the campus) and so we have taken the decision to close the Cornerstone Children’s Home, to enable us to focus on other ways to help support them.

We cannot accept special meals or essentials for the children any longer, as they are no longer with us.

Instead, if you would like to help, we would like to kindly ask you to visit our website and make a donation : www.dksha.org

Thank you to everyone who has ever donated and thank you to all our future donors. Your donations enable us to help those in need. We are very grateful.

With love and regards,

Deva Kirubai Social Help Association

We recently had the pleasure of a team visit from our friends and colleagues at Miracle Foundation and as is customary, they were received with a traditional Tamil welcome. Whilst here, they spent time visiting the children and families living village communities who are under our Family -Based Alternative Care.
