2 President’s Letter Dear Friends,

This year, we celebrate a decade of service to our community!

It all began when Dr. Vasundhara Kalasapudi, Dr. Kiran Dave and Dr. Amit Sood conceived the concept of establishing a space for elderly people to mingle on a daily basis, thereby reducing social isolation and minimizing the risks of mental degeneration. The three pioneers spearheaded and devoted considerable time and efforts to implement India Home and to register it as a section 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Our dreams became a reality and India Home registered as a non-profit in 2007, and obtained public charity status in 2009.

I could not be more proud of the work this organization has done, with endless dedication to serving South Asian and Indo-Caribbean seniors with the culturally competent services they deserve. India Home takes pride in understanding the unique needs of the many different cultural subgroups that exist in South Asia and the intersectional complexities that such seniors have to face when aging in this country. India Home has served over 100,000 culturally-tailored meals (and counting) with special care given to take into account these populations’ dietary needs. We have seen seniors tell us firsthand, the impact our yoga/exercise classes have had on them over time, improving their mobility and motor skills. Our seniors are burgeoning with talent, having written their own scripts and performed their own plays, choreographed dances, and written their own books of poetry through our Creative Aging Program. Some of our seniors have gained citizenship and received benefits such as Access-A-Ride and Food Stamps through the help of our Case Management Program. The dynamic myriad of programming that India Home has offered over time to our community has been a true inspiration to witness.

Ten years ago, this started as just an idea. India Home’s offices were operating out of Dr. Kalasapudi’s home. In 2017 it moved into a brand new office in Jamaica Estates. 2018 marked a turning point for India Home as it acquired a capital grant of $1.477 million from the NYC Council for the creation of the South Asian Community Home, our very own community center to provide culturally competent services to South Asian and Indo- Caribbean seniors. As further testament to our growing support from the government, we most recently received the news that we have been awarded a second capital grant of $2.048 million to establish a senior center in Village.

This year, we reflect on this journey of a decade and growth that has led us to where we are today. This journey could not have been possible without the unwavering energy and drive of our fellow community members and supporters like yourself. Whether it was volunteering for a festival or donating towards our cause to keep our services going, our community has held us strong through the ups and downs. We are flooding with activities, and the demand is higher than ever to expand our activities. This can only be done with your continued recognition of a need for these services and support for the years to come.

We hope we have your blessings in our voyage forward, towards a healthier, happier, and more inclusive community.

Thanks,

Mukund Mehta, President

4 A Journey Through 10 Years… While India Home received its public charity status 10 years ago in 2009, the origins started years before. Three daughters, Dr. Vasundhara Kalasapudi, Dr. Kiran Dave, and Dr. Deepika Sood, went through their own personal struggles taking care of their aging South Asian parents who suffered with the debilitating disorders of vascular dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Parkinson’s Disease. Their parents’ conditions were known and acknowledged in this country. However, their unique needs and lifestyles as South Asians were not. There lacked a place in New York City for seniors to regularly interact with peers in their own language, to provide food that accommodated their diet, and to provide services that were sensitive and tailored to their culture. This lack of ability to interact exacerbated their parents’ conditions. As the three daughters shared their experience, they found that they were not alone in realizing that there was a dire need and rampant problem in the community that was not being addressed. They decided to turn their pain into passion, and thus began the journey of India Home…
