Karnataka



SAMA Foundation was founded on December 28, 2005, by Paul Ramanathan and a group of committed young individuals with disabilities. Inspired by his work at EveryChild-UK, Paul recognized the urgent need to support suppressed communities, especially persons with disabilities, urban poor, and slum dwellers. With limited access to education and employment, many faced societal stigma and dependency. SAMA Foundation was established to break these barriers through education, livelihood programs, and inclusive development, fostering dignity and opportunity for all.
