About Us
Swaminiwas Old Age Home is more than just a shelter; it is a haven of love, care, and dignity for elderly citizens who have been abandoned, left homeless, or have no one to care for them. Established in 2021 by Gauri Pawar, Swaminiwas provides senior citizens with a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment where they can live with peace and dignity. Our mission extends beyond elder care, as we also support and empower women in distress, offering them shelter and a fresh start.
Our Mission
At Swaminiwas Old Age Home, we provide a safe, caring, and dignified home for elderly individuals in need. We offer shelter, medical care, and emotional support, ensuring they feel valued and loved. We also empower women in distress by providing safety, skills, and opportunities to rebuild their lives with confidence.
Our Vision
We envision a world where no one feels abandoned or forgotten, and every elderly person, homeless individual, and marginalized woman is treated with dignity, love, and respect. Swaminiwas Old Age Home aims to be a beacon of hope and care, providing a safe and nurturing space for those in need. We strive to empower women with skills and opportunities to lead self-sufficient and fulfilling lives. Through our efforts, we hope to inspire a future built on compassion, inclusion, and shared humanity.
Meet The Founder
Gauri Pawar
Gauri Pawar, the heart and soul behind Swaminiwas, is a single mother who turned her personal struggles into a mission to serve others.

From starting with just five residents in a small, rented apartment to expanding Swaminiwas into a full-fledged assisted living facility, her journey is one of resilience, selflessness, and unwavering determination.
