మా గురించిAbout Kāmya
A living Mahāyajña for the cow, the Earth and generations to come. This page carries the facts a donor deserves to know.
Why we exist
A painful question confronts us: what happens to a cow when she is no longer economically useful? When she becomes old, abandoned, a stray, or is destined for a slaughterhouse? We believe her value does not end when her productivity ends. Kāmya exists to protect the cow beyond productivity: rescue, lifelong care, indigenous breed conservation, and the education of the next generation.
The task ahead
Today around 200 cows live at our Toopran gaushala. Our goal is daily food, healthcare and dignity for a herd of 600 to 700 cows. That is roughly ₹2 lakh of care every single day, which is why the Mahāyagnam must be built on many shoulders: daily feeders, monthly adopters, corporate partners, and volunteers. There is no hierarchy of Seva. Only the willingness to participate.
We publish facts we can stand behind. Our registration number and our trustees are not on this page yet, and we would rather say that plainly than fill the space with something vague — ask us and we will send you what we have. The fastest way to check any of it is still to come and look at the cows.
What we publish, and when
We have not published accounts, and we are not going to pretend that a website is an audit. What we can tell you today is the arithmetic we work from: roughly ₹299 a day for one cow, around 200 cows, and a commitment that grows to 600–700 — about ₹2 lakh of feed and care a day at full size. The reasoning behind that ₹299, including what it deliberately leaves out, is written up in Why ₹299 a day.
What we intend to publish, once there is a full year to publish: what came in, what went out by category, and what it cost to run the place. Until then, three things are true and checkable right now. Donations go to a bank account in the organisation’s name, shown openly on the Donate page. Every receipt is matched against that statement by a person. And you may walk in and look at the cows, which is a harder test to pass than a PDF.
What guides us
Yajña, dāna and tapas are not to be abandoned; they are to be performed. We chose the word Yajnam deliberately: Kāmya is not an organisation that collects donations in the name of religion, but a continuous offering of time, resources, skills and devotion. Rescue is not a photograph; it is a lifetime commitment. And transparency is not an annual report; it is a daily responsibility.
