Welcome to
Sai Birdh Ashram

Sai Birdh Ashram (Old Age Home) a “Home Away from Home” was a brain child of Late Miss Urmil Kumari (Founder) for the abandoned and destitute elders. She started Sai Birdh Ashram about two decades ago with a mission that ”Old Aged must not die alone of Hunger and Sickness”.
