About International SEVA
Support, Embrace, Value, Accept
International SEVA is a U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to uplifting and educating children with developmental disabilities facing hunger, stigma, social isolation, anxiety, and depression.
One in three children with autism shows depression-like symptoms, and we aim to change that. We focus on educational support, hunger and poverty relief, community acceptance, integration, awareness, and moral support. Recognizing that special children often have weaker immune systems, we provide nutritious snacks and meals to improve their health, concentration, spirits, and eagerness to learn.
We strive to Support, Embrace, Value, and Accept (SEVA) every special child.

Founder's Message
Hello, Namaste:
Welcome to International SEVA (Support, Embrace, Value, Accept). Inspired by my upbringing in Central Africa and the values instilled in me by my parents, I founded International SEVA to serve children with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and their families worldwide.
Our mission is to empower special needs children, particularly those facing stigma, isolation, and adversity, through education, advocacy, and compassionate support. From providing school supplies and nutritious meals to donating laptops and offering mentorship, we strive to uplift underprivileged and special needs children in the rural villages of Gujarat, India, as well as in Africa and the USA.
Our work is more than charity; it is a commitment to honoring the inherent worth and dignity of every individual. By fostering inclusive communities and delivering practical support, we aim to create a world where all children, regardless of their abilities or circumstances, have the opportunity to thrive and reach their full potential.
Together, we can spread kindness, compassion, and empowerment. By Supporting, Embracing, Valuing, and Accepting (SEVA) each individual for who they are, we can build a future where love knows no bounds. Your generosity and willingness to share our mission can transform countless lives. 😊
With Heartfelt Gratitude,
Nalini…
Services
Promote Awareness
Ignorance fuels the stigma and unfair treatment of children with special needs. Through dedicated group and one-on-one mentorship, we educate local communities about autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome to foster compassion, promote integration and acceptance, and improve the well-being of these children and their families.
Uplift Communities
We uplift 5 to17 years old special children by providing inclusive learning opportunities with quality (Montessori) learning tools/supplies, sensitized materials and technology. We build their confidence through social integration, hands on Projects and moral support, helping them lead healthy, successful lives. This is SEVA at its core.
Promote Wellness
Choosing between food, medicine, or bills is a challenge no one should face. Our nonprofit transforms the lives of special needs children and their caretakers in low-income, rural communities by providing healthy groceries, nutritious meals, hygiene kits, and clothing, creating a holistic support system for improving health, confidence & poverty relief.
