About Us
Building a home for cows in need
Punya Charitable Trust is a registered non-profit organization dedicated to the protection, rescue, and lifelong care of abandoned, injured, and neglected cows. Founded with the vision of creating a compassionate and transparent ecosystem for Gau Seva, our mission is to provide every rescued cow with a safe shelter, nutritious food, timely medical care, and the dignity it deserves.
Our journey began with a simple belief that every life matters. From registering the Trust and establishing a transparent financial system to identifying land for our upcoming gaushala, every milestone reflects our commitment to building a sustainable home for cows in need. We believe that meaningful change is possible when compassionate people come together with a shared purpose.
At Punya, transparency, accountability, and community participation are at the heart of everything we do. Through our website and mobile app, supporters can contribute to our mission, stay informed about project progress, and become active partners in creating a better future for rescued cows. Together, we are building more than a gaushala - we are building a movement of kindness, responsibility, and hope.
