We are building Samarth with the singular mission of bringing peace of mind and happiness to elderly in India, and their children like us who care for them.
Lack of adequate care and trusted support for seniors is a real issue in India, that affects us regardless of economic and social status. As a result, most elderly compromise on their needs and lifestyle despite financial independence. We have personally witnessed the trauma that accompanies ‘less than the best’ support we are able to offer our parents. Social changes, are accelerating the magnitude of this problem. We are determined to try and solve it for our parents and the elderly through Samarth.
