The home strives to give proper care and education to poor and abandoned children.” The home was started in 1990 by Mr Veerasingam A/L Ponnusamy with the support from his family members and under the sheltered of “Persatuan Hindu Sangam Malaysia” Mr Veerasingam is the founder of this Ashram whose family lived in the home for past 50 years.

From beginning the founder took care two teenagers and five old folks. He slowly expanded the ashram’s with orphans children. In 2002, he registered the ashram with name called “Sri Shenbagavalli Ashram Berhad” with the Register of Company.

The Ashram’s was a small house and wooden set -up and surrounded by the houses Mr Veerasingam and his family members fully taking care this Ashram.
