Since 2009 we have worked every single day to rescue, treat and shelter stray and injured cows across Uttar Pradesh. This is our story — built on faith, compassion and an unbreakable commitment to Gau Mata.
Gau Seva Dhaam was born from a simple act of compassion — a farmer brought a badly injured cow to our founder's doorstep in 2009. With no formal facility, only 3 volunteers and a single rented shed, the work began.
Today we operate a 5-acre campus in Badaun, Uttar Pradesh — home to a fully equipped veterinary hospital, ICU ward, surgery rooms, X-ray unit, organic fodder fields and a permanent shelter for over 3,000 cows at any given time.
To provide immediate rescue, comprehensive veterinary treatment, and a safe lifelong home to every stray and injured cow in need — irrespective of breed, region or condition.
A Uttar Pradesh where no cow suffers on the streets — where every community has access to a goshala, and where indigenous breeds are preserved for future generations.
Every action rooted in love and empathy
