MOHOR is a Kolkata-based non-governmental organization and special education and rehabilitation center dedicated to supporting, rehabilitating, and empowering children with special needs. Named after the Bengali word for a precious gold coin, MOHOR represents the intrinsic worth of every child, regardless of ability or socioeconomic background.
The organization operates on the core belief that society’s progress is defined by how well it cares for its most vulnerable populations. MOHOR bridges the gap between potential and opportunity, guiding differently-abled children from isolation to inclusion, and from struggle to self-reliance.

"Disability is the cause of hindrance to normal life activities. Such curse spreads its wings among a large portion of our total population. They are people with special needs and require a little support from society for fulfillment of their dreams."
Several people like Helen Keller, Stephen Hawking, Beethoven and among Indian Rabindro Jain, Masudur Rahaman Vaidya, dancer Sudha Chandran, Kanchan Gabba, Sadhan Gupta proved that a man can rise above his/her weakness. The number of institutions working with such people specially with disabled children are very few in comparison to the growing number of disabled population.
A few from Kasba, have felt the need to establish such an Institution in the locality, and started the activities at 39/3, R.K.Chatterjee Road, Kolkata - 700042 (Recreation Club Premises).
