Children play with Amma’s dog.




The Dohnavur Fellowship’s Health Education and Care Program is named Parama Suha Salai, which means “place of heavenly healing” in Tamil. The program cares for the medical needs of around 370 members belonging to the

Fellowship and the healthcare of around 700 children and staff residing at the Santhosha Vidhyalaya school.




Children perform one of Amma’s nature songs.




Dohnavur Fellowship meets the needs for food, shelter, clothing, healthcare, and education of children, allowing the children to grow and blossom in a loving and safe environment.




Boys at the Santhosha Vidhyalaya school. The boarding school develops the skills of children from across the country to be contributing members of their communities. The school currently has

children who speak 13 different languages, representing 26 out of the 32 states of India.




The Dohnavur Fellowship has been a beacon of refuge for “at risk” children since the time of Amma. Children are rescued from difficult situations and referred by government agencies to be admitted into the home.




Students and their teachers at the Jeevalaya preparatory school. The school helps children who have just joined the children’s home.




Members of Dohnavur Fellowship. Founded in 1901 by Amy Carmichael (fondly known as “Amma”) as a home for rescued children, the work of the fellowship has expanded through the years. Today the good work of Amma is continued by her

great-grandchildren who grew up and dedicated their lives to sharing the love of Jesus Christ with others in need.




The Dohnavur Fellowship runs a dairy farm with around 40 cows. Milk from the dairy is supplied to the children’s home, home for the elderly, and also for the children of Sathosha Vidyalaya, who number around 800.
