Agency for the Development of Oppressed through Relief and Education (ADORE) is a registered charitable organization (Reg. No.181/84 ) with all India jurisdiction and headquarters at Kollam in Kerala. They were engaged in the holistic development of mainly poor tribals and dalits, earlier in Kerala and Chattisgarh and now mainly in Orissa. Adv. P.A Cyrus and Bro.S K Abraham were the pioneers. The above strategy of starting school hostels for the intellectual and moral development of tribals and dalits was derived from their mission in Orissa
Founder Tribals and Dalits together constitute 25% of India’s population. Most of them are poor and they mainly live in villages. For centuries they have been victims of stark exploitation and blatant oppression. After the advent of freedom, the Central and State Governments and many N.G.Os are taking yeomen efforts for their amelioration but failed to yield tangible results. The basic reason is that the majority of them are uneducated and trapped under several superstitions. As a result they are intellectually and morally not properly equipped to strive for their holistic development. Reservation benefits granted to these communities are monopolized by their own creamy layer, a nominal minority, and hardly permeate to grass-root level.
How you can help the mission. All brothers and sisters and organizations interested to help the poor tribals and dalits in India are requested to kindly sponsor one or more children or one or more hostels according to their capacity .
