The Shepherd Widows Home, managed by the Bishop of Mumbai - CNI, takes care of old widows and provides them with free housing, medical care and other necessities. Dr Batra's™ Foundation has been associated with Shepherd Widows Home for over 30 years and has been instrumental in providing a means for alternative and affordable healthcare to the beneficiaries. For over three decades, Dr Batra's™ has been committed to providing free lifetime healthcare treatment to the residents of Shepherd Widows Home. 'Yaadon Ki Bahaar' is a highly anticipated event for the ladies of the home.

Dr. Mukesh Batra instituted the musical concert with the view to move beyond cheque book philanthropy. The ladies of the Home are remarkable, having gone through so much in lives. This concert is not about the money that goes to them or the charity but pays homage to their spirit.

Speaking about the initiative, Dr. Mukesh Batra said, "Over the years, we have always been committed to providing holistic healthcare treatments to all our patients. Through Dr Batra's™ Foundation it has been our constant endeavor to extend this vision to the underprivileged and ensure that no one who is in need of medical intervention is left unattended. 'Yaadon Ki Bahaar' is one such initiative to involve the community to support a worthy cause. We believe it is our duty to see that they do not spend their twilight years in isolation, pain and misery. They do not need our pity but they need our love, care and support. It fills our hearts with pride and a sense of fulfillment to see the lovely ladies at Shepherd Widows Home participate whole-heartedly in 'Yaadon Ki Bahaar'. We remain steadfast in our efforts to ensure that the residents of Shepherd Widows Home not only receive a meaningful donation, but also continue to receive appropriate healthcare, and most importantly, have the time of their lives at this concert."
