The Hon’ble Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh has a vision to serve the most disadvantaged section of society. To fulfill this vision, after taking oath as the Chief Minister of the State, he announced the “Mukhya Mantri Sukh Aashray Yojna” for all orphan, abandoned, and surrendered children of the state with the following objectives:
- To provide comprehensive care and protection to orphan, semi-orphan, specially-abled and other children, as well as Ekal Nari / destitute women in need of care and protection until they become self-reliant and financially independent.
- To provide higher education and professional education to children already covered under the Child Protection Services Scheme, Foster Care/Sponsorship Programme, and After Care Programme in the State.
- To provide skill development trainings to Ekal Nari / destitute women in State Home for Women & Shakti Sadan and to provide assistance for their rehabilitation.
- To create state-of-the-art facilities and improve the quality of life while maintaining the dignity of children, destitute women, and elderly persons by providing psycho-social support and emotional connection.
- To create an enabling environment that ensures equal opportunities, equity, social justice, and empowerment for children in CCIs, destitute women, and elderly persons.
For fulfilling these objectives and to run the “Mukhya Mantri Sukh Aashray Yojna,” a new initiative called the “Mukhya Mantri Sukh Aashray Kosh” was established with a corpus of Rs. 101.00 Crore. Initially, a State-level Kosh was set up at the Directorate of Women and Child Development with the support of the State Government. Subsequently, District-level Kosh units were established under the Chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner in all districts.
The Kosh actively receives voluntary donations, contributions, and subscriptions, including those from Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The Mukhya Mantri Sukh Aashray Kosh also accepts online contributions through net banking, credit cards, and debit cards.
