Visit to Smt Foolbasseea Babooram Sewa Ashram – 12th July 2026
12th July 2026, the Executive Committee and members of Clairfonds Arya Samaj had the privilege of visiting Smt Foolbasseea Babooram Sewa Ashram at Chemin Grenier as part of our sewa programme.
We were warmly welcomed by the Manager, Mr Saddul, and the President, Mrs Veejeta Bhagee Jawaheer. They introduced us to the Ashram, explained its history and operations, and shared the dedicated work being carried out to care for its residents. We were especially touched to learn that the Manager is personally present on-site almost every day, ensuring the well-being of everyone at the Ashram.
The Ashram has the capacity to accommodate up to 99 residents. During our visit, we had the opportunity to tour some of the residential blocks, interact with the residents, and serve them lunch with love, respect, and compassion.
As members of the Arya Samaj, we shared that our mission is not only to uphold the Ten Principles (Niyams) of Arya Samaj, but also to put them into action through selfless service (sewa). In particular, we were inspired by Principle 6, which encourages us to promote the physical, spiritual, and social well-being of all, and Principle 9, which reminds us that our own progress is found in the progress and happiness of others.
We express our sincere gratitude to the management and staff of Smt Foolbasseea Babooram Sewa Ashram for their warm hospitality and for the remarkable work they do every day. May we all continue to serve humanity with humility, compassion, and dedication.
