Premdham was founded in 2009 by two Catholic priests from the Diocese of Bijnor – namely Frs. Shibu and Benny, later joined by Frs. Baiju and Linto. Located in Najibabad, Bijnor, 180 kilometres west of India’s national capital, Premdham is a symbol of love, compassion, and brotherhood.
Premdham Ashram, part of the Catholic Diocese of Bijnor in India, is a centre that supports orphaned individuals with disabilities, the terminally ill, and the destitute.
Our purpose is to provide a nurturing environment for orphaned individuals with disabilities, the terminally ill, and the destitute. We provide them with food, shelter, and clothing. In addition, we facilitate their rehabilitation and reintegration into society, as all of our inmates/members are those abandoned by their next of kin and kith. A comprehensive rehabilitation program is critical to their overall mental, physical, and psychological well-being.
