Founded by Prasad Koparkar and Vidula Kulkarni in September 2020, our organization addresses the needs expressed by many individuals who worry about their aging parents while staying away from home
WHY MADATNIS?
madatnis Need
In recent times, many children have settled abroad, while their parents choose to remain in India due to their comfort and familiarity with the environment.
This situation adds to the worries of children, as the physical distance limits the support they can provide.
Previously, joint families living together allowed elderly parents to receive assistance from family members, neighbors, and friends. However, with nuclear families spread across different cities and everyone leading busy lives, relying solely on family and friends has become increasingly challenging
