Who are you trying to help? What issue are you trying to address?

5.2 millions of India’s population are affected by HIV/AIDS, orphaning many children. Their relatives and local communities are to a wide degree not taking care of them, fearing to contract HIV/AIDS. Being socially rejected by the community, their own kith and kin – the children are often left to beg or steal, in order to survive.

What is your project and how will it help?

We plan to start one asylum / home for these vulnerable and disadvantaged children. We already have a building capable of accommodating 100 children. Though, the building is unfurnished while we as well need to cover the running cost of the asylum.

Outcome of the Project:
1) Prevent the acquisition and transmission of new infections.
2) Reduce the social and economic impact of HIV/AIDS.
3) Care and support will be given to these children.
4) Love and concern will be showered unto them.
5) Improve the quality of life of the children,
6) Giving them good education, enabling them to stand own on their legs.

This project will be monitored by our board of directors and we will have
review meetings each month. We will also document the annual report and the audited statement of accounts periodically. Everything can be forwarded to our donors.

How can other people partner with you on your project?

People can also help us with gifts in-kind or donations. Interested parties can also send representatives or recommend relevant organizations.
