ASHA
KIRAN is translated as “Ray of Hope” which is true to the nature of
deaddiction centre giving hope and confidence to those who get
treated here. The center is situated at Palya a small village Hassan
District on the National Highway 75 linking the cities of Bangalore
and Mangalore. Asha Kiran at Palya solely caters to the needs of the
persons with substance use disorder. While the purpose is to serve
all the victims of substance abuse, the majority of inmates are
alcoholics. Most of the people with addiction are from lower middle
class and poor, under employed workers from unorganized or
agricultural sector. The cold climatic conditions of Western Ghats
could also be an added reason for addiction. It is a vicious circle
that due to stressful life and poverty; they fall prey to alcohol
and due to which they remain poor all along. The people are also
victims of other social evils like illiteracy, child labour, caste
discrimination, exploitation of women and children etc. Asha Kiran
concentrates on changing the lifestyle of these persons, not just in
deaddiction but promising a better life and dignity in the family
and wellbeing of society. .JPG)

Festival
of Lights is a feast for everyone. Asha Kiran along with the
staff and inmates celebrated Deepavali with a short
meaningful prayer service. Br Arun explained to the inmates
the meaning of Deepavali and its significance in the lives
of the persons with addiction. Every member lit a lamp and
made a personal prayer of his own. After the spiritual
session, all the inmates gathered outside for fireworks and
celebration. The inmates commented that this celebration was
more meaningful and enchanting than they usually celebrate
Deepavali at home. 
It
is indeed an added feather to the cap of Asha Kiran when the
new Ambulance (Tata Winger) arrived at the campus on 9th
September 2022. Palya is a small village situated between
Hassan and Sakleshpur under Alur Taluk. Taluk headquarters
has just two ambulances for the emergency health services.
Considering this requirement and also the need of an
ambulance at Deaddiction Center, an ambulance was proposed
and sanctioned. Br. Cyril blessed the vehicle while the
friars, staff and inmates were present. The Ambulance is the
contribution of Seven Island Shipping Limited Company of
Mumbai through Corporate Social Responsibility. However, the
community is grateful to Fr. Darick D’Souza for intervening
with his friends to make this possible. The Ambulance is
used for the emergency purposes of Asha Kiran as well as
will respond to any emergency calls from around.
