Founder's Profile
DAVO is an award-winning, registered Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) set up in 1985 by Mr. Dev Giri Goswami, in New Delhi.
His journey began when he left his home in 1978 to become a driver. He noticed that drivers always left injured animals on the roads and decided to bury any dead animal he came across.
While doing so he also came across lot of homeless people who were in very unhygienic, critically diseased and painful condition. Nobody would come forward to help or even to touch them.
He brought back to his home several homeless people he met on the roads, gave them a good haircut and provided them with nourishing food. He and his wife began performing the last rites of unclaimed dead. They believed in humanity and not religion and performed the last rites of Muslims, Christians & Sikhs too.
He put up tents in several places to house the homeless. He has also created an NGO called Dev Animal Voluntary Organization but it does not only cater to animals
