The first SOS Children’s Village was established in 1949 at Imst, Austria, by five philanthropists in the aftermath of World War II. Since then, the organization has been active and expanding throughout the world. At present, SOS Children’s Villages is active in over 136 countries and territories with over 500 SOS Children’s Villages and 400 SOS Youth Facilities striving for the welfare of children in need of care and protection.
SOS India has been providing care to orphaned and abandoned children for 57 years across 32 Children’s Villages in 22 states and union territories of India.
The work of SOS Children’s Villages is guided by a strong commitment to children's rights. As a child-focused organisation, SOS Children’s Villages India draws upon the principles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in its efforts to support, protect and promote the well-being of children.
