HCL employees and interns care for the elderly
HCL Technologies is a corporate supporter of SHEOWS centre in India. SHEOWS centre is an old age home working to save lives of the abandoned, destitute, and homeless elderly across Delhi National Capital Region (NCR), and Uttar Pradesh, India. Starting from rescue to providing the elderly with a second home, it is a place where the elderly are medically treated and provided with free shelter, comfortable accommodation, healthy and nutritious food, clothing, medical care facilities, love and affection.
The aim is to serve every destitute, orphan, needy and abandoned elderly with a strong belief of helping old aged people and spreading awareness of elders care, not only giving them a new life, but also reducing the cases of elder abuse in society. The facilities are provided to the elderly completely free of cost throughout the year. Most of the elders are picked up from the streets of Delhi NCR or brought in by Police or hospital authorities.
SHEOWS believes in the notion of 'Vasudeva Kutumbakam', meaning the whole world is our family. This inspires SHEOWS to serve every elderly person in need as its own family member.
