Who we are

In the heart of every woman, man and child is hunger for home. Not just for food and a place to sleep, but for safety and community. Most importantly: for love. At the Maher, 30 km from Pune in the village of Koregaon Bhima, we are much more than a home for women, men, and children from difficult and desperate circumstances.

We are a family, where love guides us all as we grow and expand year after year. Take a look around and if you have any questions, contact us via the menu above!

❤️‍🩹 AIDS Day Awareness Rally at Maher Centers ❤️‍🩹

On the occasion of World AIDS Day, Maher organized awareness rallies at our centers in Bakori, Kendur, Awalwadi, and Warda. Children, women, staff, and community members actively participated as the rallies moved through the nearby villages, spreading important messages on:

🔴 Awareness about HIV/AIDS

🔴 Ending stigma and discrimination

🔴 Encouraging care, support, and understanding

🔴 Promoting health, safety, and compassion

The participation and enthusiasm from all centers made the program meaningful and impactful. Together, we continue our mission to build an informed, caring, and stigma-free society. 🤝❤️

🕊️🌞 Special Meditation with Didi – A Day of Peace & Spiritual Unity 🌞🕊️

On 22 November 2025, our beloved Sr. Lucy Kurien (Didi) led a special meditation session — from 5:00 AM to 8:00 PM — praying for peace, healing, and love for the whole world. 🌍💛

All Maher centers joined together in this divine practice, creating a powerful chain of positive energy and unity. ✨🤝

Children, women, staff, and elders came together in silence and stillness — remembering that peace begins within us and spreads to everyone around us. 🌸

Through prayer and meditation, Didi continues to guide us toward a life of compassion, strength, and harmony. 🙏💫

May this collective spiritual effort bring blessings to all — our Maher family, our communities, and the world. ❤️
