"I got enrolled into Ankur at a very young age and it only got better and better childhood one could ever wish for. The foundation provided me with tremendous support to go ahead with a purpose for a better tomorrow. Love, affection, tender care were found abundantly in Ankur. Core life qualities are dwelt upon profoundly. What I entered the gates of Ankur with a tear of cry, excited with a brighter smile, with a promised future and loads of memories."

"ANKUR " is not a hostel, I would say it's a "HOME". Firstly, I'm blessed that I got an opportunity to be part of Ankur. I never felt homesick because I always had people around me like in a family. I would like to thank all the Akkas for taking care of us like how our mothers do. I also thank our teachers for always supporting us in everything. This place has my whole heart. Ankur does not only focus on academics but also co-curricular activities such as dance, music, theatre, drawing, sports etc. It has shown me the right path to my career. Today I have much more clarity in becoming a Psychologist. The reason behind this confidence is Ankur. Thank you so much Shibu uncle and Kumari mummy for giving me a bright future. My special thanks to Col. Menon Sir, Jennifer ma'am, Sunitha ma'am, Sandhya ma'am, Simi Akka and all the other faculties of Ankur for guiding me through this journey. There aren't enough words to express what Ankur support means. I feel so grateful. I promise to make the most of all the facilities provided by Ankur and I'm committed to achieving a great name for Ankur."

"My journey in Ankur was incredible and very memorable. This journey and this place have taught me many things like values, leadership qualities and importance of taking responsibilities. I was 3 years old when I joined the Ankur family, and it was a wonderful experience throughout this journey. The teachers, the staff and the caretakers played a pivotal role in shaping me for what I am today. Growing up here I made a lot of friends and feel very connected to them. Shibu Uncle and Kumari mummy have been a great inspiration to me from the start. During my entire time at Ankur the staff and teachers helped me work on and improve my talent in art that has given me a big edge today over others for which I am very grateful. They have shown me the right path to move in and supported me at all times . I am grateful to all at Ankur and my friends who have been beside me throughout this journey at Ankur."

"My journey in Ankur has been the most incredible one. It has given me a platform for a lot of learning, improvements, and developments. I was 4 years old when I joined this family. Ankur gave me a great opportunity to grow with different people and learn several things. Regardless of my setbacks in Academics, Ankur helped me get better and better by providing the kind of support I needed specifically. The activities conducted in Ankur have helped me come out of my comfort zone and showcase my strengths and talents. This journey was possible only because of Shibu uncle and Kumari mummy. The guidance of my teachers has been of immense value in showing me the right path. Ankur not only took care of my Academics but also my physical and emotional wellbeing. I am thankful to all my friends who have stayed by my side throughout my ups and downs; we’ve created a lot of wonderful memories together."

"There is research in psychology where the intelligence of a child is not solely influenced by nature but also greatly influenced by the nurturing environment the child grows up in. Ankur has given me the best environment that an Organization could ever provide. Year by year shaping my personality and honing my intelligence, Ankur made me who I am today, an educated man. Ankur has helped me realise my goal and work towards achieving it with dedication and hardwork.It has taught me that there is no room for giving up. It has given me strength to take over challenges that come forth in the present and in future. Ankur has now become my second family. I am incredibly grateful for all the support I have gained from my teachers, staff and elders. I now only hope to honour the opportunity Ankur has given me and the real heroes behind the organisation by achieving my goal and helping the society. "

"There is nothing more important than a good, safe, secure home. For me, Ankur, an organisation, is one such safe and sheltered place. I started off this beautiful journey when I was three years old and is the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life. Ankur has been an incredible platform for my personal growth, from learning new things, being able to speak fluent English, doing the daily chores on my own and includes everything that has been a major part of who I am today. The amazing experiences that I had at Ankur are priceless to be honest. I remember being a very shy person, but our Ankur team kept motivating me and today I feel more confident and stronger to face anything that comes my way. It’s a place that makes us always feel safe and healthy, especially during the COVID pandemic. I have learnt a lot of values, talking about the values of Ankur RCARE which has taken a valuable spot in my mind. Ankur has become a second home and family making it a truly connected and fulfilling place for me. To mention the most important people, Shibu uncle and Kumari mummy, without whom my Ankur journey would be impossible. I'm grateful to the entire Ankur team for helping me get through and through, imparting knowledge, always keeping me motivated and finally guided me to be a confident person. It's a place I've grown, learnt and laughed, finally it has secured a best place in my heart."

"Without hesitation, I say proudly that the person I am today and the person I will become in the future is a strong result of the influence Ankur has on my life and is the building block of my character. The core RCARE values of Ankur are now a part of my being. Moreover, the etiquette, support and guidance provided to me have played a huge role in the way I am carrying myself in college and the outside world. Ankur is like my family. Like every family, Ankur has groomed me and prepared me well for the future."

"Home is a place where you have emotional bonding and attachments. "ANKUR" I would like to call it my first home. Be it education or creating a family environment, it has fulfilled all these criteria to the fullest. During my middle school years, I was facing difficulties to concentrate on my studies due to family problems. But Ankur didn't fail me. The problems got resolved and gradually I started to keep up with my academic performances. I can’t believe, what I started as a below average student, today I could top in academics at my college. Apart from studies Ankur has given me extra skills in co- curriculum aspects as well.It has provided me with a good value system which I follow till date "R CARE". I'm sure I will take the flag of Ankur to fly high. I thank Shibu uncle and Kumari mummy a lot for this immeasurable support in my life."

"ANKUR - My home, My family, My backbone, I call it “the best part of my life” I Beena, joined Ankur when I was 3 years old, not knowing that this hostel would be the greatest blessing of my life. As I recall, I was a studious, active, talented and a very naughty girl. As I grew up, eventually I lost both my parents. Life is not always easy to live, there are storms and hurdles that come along and all we need is someone to push us forward, encourage us to face those difficulties. Ankur has always been there for me as a helping hand that held mine no matter what. I am very lucky, blessed, and grateful to Ankur. Ankur has provided me with my basic needs, education, love, care and keeps on supporting me. Ankur has given me hope and is the best family I have ever had. I am indeed very thankful to everyone in Ankur who has brought me up and has always been by my side. I Love ANKUR !"
