Where We Work:

Empowering Abilities: Uplifting Lives at Unchaiyan

At Unchaiyan, our work isn’t confined to the walls of our Hyderabad headquarters. It extends across the vast tapestry of India, reaching out to those who need it most – individuals with disabilities, particularly wheelchair users. We believe that every person, regardless of their abilities, deserves the chance to thrive and contribute to society. This belief fuels our mission as we journey across the country, empowering individuals and communities, one wheelchair at a time.

Hyderabad: Our Roots, Our Wings

Our journey began in Hyderabad, the city that serves as our headquarters and a melting pot of diverse cultures. Here, we have witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by people with disabilities, especially those using wheelchairs. Inadequate infrastructure, lack of accessibility, and societal barriers often create roadblocks to their independence and inclusion.

That’s where Unchaiyan steps in. We work tirelessly to bridge these gaps, creating a Hyderabad that is truly accessible and inclusive for all. We partner with local organizations, government bodies, and individuals to:

The impact of our work:

Our work transcends the physical act of providing wheelchairs. We witness stories of transformation – individuals regaining mobility, securing employment, and actively participating in their communities. We see families empowered, communities becoming more inclusive, and a society gradually shifting its perspective on disability.

Building bridges, fostering inclusion

We actively work towards creating an inclusive society where individuals with disabilities are seen not as recipients of charity, but as equal members with valuable contributions to make.
