Old Age Home Charity

NGO for Senior Citizens

Aging should be all about relishing memories, being valued, and receiving the care that one requires. However, for the majority of elderly citizens, aging is all about loneliness, poverty, and health uncertainty—just like many other people in need who are often overlooked by society.

At Rushi Fund, we won't allow our seniors to fade into the distance of neglect. Because of our donors' generosity and our volunteers' compassion, we're ensuring our seniors age with dignity, joy, and security—because aging should be a privilege, not a challenge.

Will you be the reason a senior smiles today?

The Harsh Reality

Why This Cause Matters

Most elderly individuals experience:

Financial Difficulty – No pension or savings, struggling to eat and house.
Loneliness & Isolation – As families move away, they feel abandoned.
Medical Neglect – Sickness but no one to help them get treated.
Elder Abuse and Neglect – Elderly, vulnerable to abuse or exploitation.

“We can’t change the past for them, but together, we can create a better future.”

Now, imagine this instead:

Morning: Wakes up to a volunteer bringing groceries & chatting with her.

Afternoon: Attends a storytelling session with other seniors.

Evening: Enjoys a warm meal, knowing she is loved & cared for.

A Day in the Life of an Elder in Need

Morning: Wakes up alone, no breakfast, struggling to take medications.

Afternoon: Tries to call a relative, but no one answers. Feels forgotten.

Evening: Struggles to cook due to arthritis. Goes to bed hungry and lonely.
