She faced a very tough time by herself coping with financial hardships. **She worked as a maid to manage the needs of her large family.** She worked hard and got her children married. **Unfortunately, after their marriage, all her children got busy with their lives, and no one supported Bimla.**She lived in a one-room mud wall house with one of her daughters who is a widow. Her daughter worked as a helper in a tailoring shop. Bimala suffers from severe asthma and hence found it very hard to find a job. **With no means of livelihood, she started to beg.** **Abhoy Mission's social workers spotted her and decided to include her in the Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) beneficiary List. After the intervention of Abhoy Mission, things changed for the better.** She now receives rations every month. She also received medical help when required. She has been enabled to live a dignified life now, with the support of Abhoy Mission.**Without the support of Abhoy Mission, Bimla would have spent all her old age begging. The aid she has received has given her dignity in her golden years.****You can also help poor seniors get two meals a day which is a basic right.
