Children of Deccan Foundation
Boys celebrating Raksha Bandhan at the home in Hyderabad

Hyderabad, India · Established 2018

A licensed home and a real education for boys who deserve both.

Children of Deccan Foundation provides safe shelter, family-style care, and private schooling to boys from disadvantaged backgrounds across Telangana — quietly, consistently, and for as long as they need us.

What we do

Care, schooling, and stability — under one roof.

We are a licensed children's home, registered with state authorities and operated to the standards of the Juvenile Justice (Care & Protection of Children) Act. Every boy in our care receives food, healthcare, and a place at a private English-medium school.

A licensed home

Twenty rooms, full-time caregivers, and a daily rhythm built around safety, nutrition, study, and play.

Private schooling

Every boy is enrolled at Pragathi Vidhya Mandir High School. Tuition, uniforms, books, stationery, tutoring, and spoken-English training are all provided.

Family-style care

Our team are not staff first — they are the steady adults in our boys' lives. Many have been here for years.

Our mission

A childhood worth remembering, and a future worth building.

Children should not have to grow up too fast. We exist so that boys who have lost the safety of a family home — through poverty, bereavement, or circumstance — can still have one. Three meals a day. A bed of their own. Adults who know their name. And a school uniform laid out for the morning.

We measure success not in reports but in the lives of young men who leave us with a school certificate, a trade, or a place at college — and the confidence to use it.
