Reaching Out to

REACHING OUT TO CHILDREN SINCE 1991

Thanks to the power of word-of-mouth communication and the dedication of our initial donors, the sponsorships grew to embrace thousands of children. What began as a small effort benefiting a handful of kids in a seashore village evolved into an organisation whose work has had a profound impact on the local community.

About Us

Care & Share was born in February 1991 when Antonio Rigopoulos, a student of Indology from Venice, Italy, visited an orphanage at Manginapudi on the Bay of Bengal. His sister, Carol Faison, took the lead to organise support for the children in the photographs he brought home.

Our Mission

To reach out to children in need of care and protection, with a special focus on girl children, and to establish Homes for those who have been abandoned or whose families cannot care for them.

Our Vision

To snap the self-reinforcing cycle of poverty, ignorance and disease — one life, one child, one family at a time.
