With a population of 1.25 Lacs, Nagda in Madhya Pradesh is not the first place that strikes one as the locale for the world class institution to care for children with Intellectual disabilities. But that’s just what Lion Pankaj Maru wanted to make Special Need Education Home (SNEH) which was founded in July 2009 by him along with co fonder Late Lion Dr. Naina as permanent project of the Lions of Nagda as a unit of Nagda Zenith Social Welfare Society (Regn no. 07/33/05/07241/07).

Setting up SNEH in a small two room rented school shed, Lions of Nagda managed to convince the parents of eight children with special need that they could help. “the biggest challenge was to educate the parents that such children are not a burden” says Lion Maru , parent of an ADHD baby girl Sonu who is inspiration in making him a warrior for children with special need after leaving comfortable and luxurious life of Dubai based MNC as COO. The Job of treating children with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, ADHD, Delay Development, and Intellectual Disabilities in a small town was another big challenge.
