Let us flood social media with peace and love.

“In Darkness, Be Light.”

Soulfree that aims to help people with severe disabilities, especially women to lead a life of dignity and purpose. Soulfree’s ultimate goal is to change this and provide a state of the art rehabilitation centre that will house women with severe disabilities that cannot be taken care of by their families as long as they need it.

Soulfree also provides training and skills to ensure that they can use whatever faculties they have to become financially independent. For example, voice-based jobs for those who can only use their voice productively – dubbing artists, audio books, advertising.
