Help abandoned children get access to love and care

Campaign by SOS Children's Village of India

Story
Impact

Tulsi Parihar, from SOS Children's Village Bhimtal is the longest-serving SOS Mother in the world.Tulsi joined as a mother in 1984, and since then she has raised 33 children, spanning four generations. She has raised 33 children and many of them are now independent and some even married. Working as an SOS Mother means looking after many children at the same time. Since children come from different backgrounds, she has sometimes faced difficulties helping them adjust. Sometimes, dealing with adolescents and their behavior also gets difficult and taxing. However, various training programmes, sessions on parenting skills, and support from the SOS Village staff have helped to deal with such challenges.

About The Program

SOS Children's Villages of India's objective is to provide long-term family based care to abandoned children by giving them a home and a strong foundation. The organisation operates on four principles, the Mother; Siblings; the house; the village. The SOS village operates like a community with each home housing 8-10 children. A dedicated SOS mother lives with and takes care of the children. All requirements of a home like education, health, nutrition, upkeep, extra-curricular activities along with capacity building, the emotional and physical well-being of the mother are provided. Many SOS mothers are widowed, divorced and have the need for a sense of belonging. They are provided 6 months practical and theoretical training before they take on the role. When you donate to the program you support the allowance given to a mother which helps her financial independence. These mothers play an important role in the children having a normal childhood.
