This unit of
Snehalaya was a hospice for the victims of HIV/AIDS and other related
diseases particularly tuberculosis. This twenty-bedded center situated
just behind Balaji Temple in Betkuchi, Guwahati was gifted to Snehalaya by
ILA Trust in November 2003 at the initiative of its founder Rani Reeta
Devi, a renowned social worker who was inspired by Mother Teresa and who
was also a close associate of the saint. We have done major
infrastructural renovation of ILA Snehalaya and acquired a new ambulance.
It is in the process of being re-dimensioned into a home and treatment
centre for children, particularly those with physical and mental
disabilities. It is being managed by the Fatima Sisters.
