About Us

Deenabandhu — a place of love and unconditional acceptance

Deenabandhu is a voluntary organization committed to the welfare of orphaned and destitute children from all castes, creed, and religion. The organization was founded in 1992 by Prof. G. S Jayadev in Chamarajanagara, Karnataka.

Deenabandhu's humble beginnings comprised of a small group of six boys living in a rented house. Now, Deenabandhu children's home nurtures around 40 boys and 40 girls. The trust also runs a school for children from neighboring villages, catering to LKG to 10th std, and offers significantly discounted education to kids from underprivileged backgrounds. Indo-MIM fully supports the school's expenses.

Additionally, Deenabandhu has founded a Teacher Resource Center (TRC) to promote experiential learning in government schools across Karnataka. Currently, TRC collaborates with over 200 teachers from 240 government schools, benefiting approximately 10,000 students.

Chairman of INDO-MIM Pvt. Ltd.

Having spent close to 35 years in the USA, philanthropy comes naturally to me. I believe that every child irrespective of circumstances of birth deserves equal opportunity and an environment to grow to his or her full potential. I was totally enamored with the talent these children showcased. Mr. Jayadev has done commendable work. On behalf of the staff of Indo-MIM, I wish the school and children all the best.

Sri. C V Ramana

Former Chief Justice of India

Deenabandhu is not only educating children, but is also shaping their lives. After the education, these children should be able to occupy responsible positions in the society and should be able to contribute the fruits of their knowledge to the society.

“Deenabandhu” What a sweet name! This place is not just a lifeline for the needy, but also for many of us who come to get a glimpse of the innocence of children. This lifeline is none other than our beloved Jayanna.
