ABOUT US:

Sarvoham Welfare Trust is a charitable organization dedicated to the welfare of under-privileged animals in Bangalore, India. Sarvoham was established in April 2017 by co-founders Haris Ali & Madhusmita Sahu with a vision to create an inclusive eco-system that co-exists with animals providing them a respectable life that contributes to the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) frameworks and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs’) for the planet.

Over the past 9 years, Sarvoham has grown from a small charity effort to a well-established animal welfare organization. We have rescued more than 3500 street animals, and provide a shelter for more than 200 dogs.

Sarvoham means the harmony between all elements of nature, both human and non-human, and the organization is guided by the spirit of harmonious coexistence.
