help age india


HelpAge India is the leading advocate for Older People’s rights. We speak up for India’s 90 million (current estimate) grey population to help them live with dignity, independence & self-fulfilment.

HelpAge’s Chief Executive represents the organisation on the National Planning Commission. We have been providing various inputs during formal/ informal discussions to India’s 11th Five Year Plan Document. HelpAge has actively participated in discussions for formulating the Union Ministry recommendations on the Plan document to the National Planning Commission. HelpAge is also a member of the National Council of Older Persons.

Our role is that of an enabler between two groups of people.

development organisations and individuals working at grassroots-level with marginalised Elders, their families and communities,
people like you, coming together from all walks of life who believe in the rights of the Aged
