Karunai Illam is a home for children with physical and intellectual disabilities. It was founded on a simple commitment: every child deserves a stable, dignified place to live, learn, and belong.
We make room for each child to learn at their own pace, within daily routines that support both independence and community.
Who cares for the home
Managed by the Asmi sisters
Karunai Illam is managed directly by the Asmi sisters. Their daily presence shapes the routines, the learning, and the care that the children receive, and keeps the home steady over the long term.
Their work is grounded in respect for each person. Every day they support both the children's independence and their sense of belonging within the community of the home.

Education and hands-on candle-making are part of the everyday work we do with the children.
