CHINAR was launched in 2003 in northern Virginia for the rehabilitation of orphans and vulnerable children in conflict areas. Between 2004 and 2011, CHINAR successfully ran a pilot project called CHINAR Home (a home for 20 orphan boys and girls) in Kashmir India, in partnership with a local Non-Governmental Organization (NGO). CHINAR supported the local NGO in Kashmir both programmatically and financially during this time. The partnership also successfully conducted remote sponsorship of vulnerable children. We are a social impact organization that brings education, health and opportunities to orphans, widows, children and youth living in conflict areas, so they can survive, thrive and reach their full potential.
