Share and Care Children’s Welfare Society is serving the needy children since 1984.The main objective is to impart education freely to the underprivileged, orphan children, girl, physically challenged people and children belonging to scheduled caste and tribes in remote villages.We run a crèche,a primary and a high school and impart free education to 200 children. Our School is recognized by the government of Tamilnadu, but not aided. Due to financial constraints, we are unable to pay our teachers and needs of the children are not being met as we wish. Since these children are from poor families they need support for their betterment in this competitive world.This project area is situated in Katchur village, Poondi Block in Tiruvellore district.The children from the remote village have no transportation facilities and most of their parents are illiterate and undernourished. The children need better care and good education to support their families and their communities at large.Our schools are functioning since 1990 exclusively for these children and are now educating 200 children.Most of them work as agricultural labourers, wood cutters. They have seasonal work and no regular job. Bonded labour and child labour still prevail. Sending their children to school is not that important for their parents because of poverty. Unless these children are brought to school by the lure of free transportation, education and mid-day meals, they have every possibility of dropping out.

Akshaya Trust - Introduction“Grow old gracefully” goes an old saying. But growing old is quite painful for many in the modern society. In many lower middle class and poor families, taking care of old people is becoming a major issue day by day. As a result, many senior citizens, who spent their entire life to bring up their children to give them better status in life, are seen as a burden to the family and are forced to search for new home.Akshaya Trust, has been doing a yeomen service to those destitute senior citizens by taking them into its fold, giving them shelter, healthy food, medical care and more importantly love and affection. Started by Mr. Gopalan, an industrialist, in the year 2001, Akshaya today houses 250+ senior citizens and provides them with all facility at free of cost. There is a full-fledged medical team of doctors and nurses visit the home regularly to keep the inmates healthy. Newspapers, magazines and TV are provided to engage and entertain the inmates. In case of any eventuality the home performs all the rituals if the inmate’s relatives don’t turn up.Motivated by the selfless service, many individuals and groups visit Akshaya regularly, support the Trust with donations and also spend time with the inmates entertaining them with music, games, bhajans and general conversations. Many people offer donations during their special days such as birthday, wedding day and memorial days of their relatives. Many families even come and celebrate their special days with the inmates.HIGHLIGHTS OF FACILITIES PROVIDED AT AKSHAYA OLD AGE HOMES·       Generator Installed: Power cut is a constant problem in the rural area where Akshaya is located. This results in discomfort to the inmates, especially during summers. Also, the water pumping and even cooking gets affected because of erratic power supply. To overcome this, with the donation from a well-wisher, Generator set has been installed, which can take care of the entire needs of Akshaya home.·       Cupboards provided: For storing personal things, inmates were using their own bags and suitcases, which becomes cumbersome for them and also becomes messy. To make it convenient for the inmates to store their personal belongings, individual cupboards are provided to every inmate.·       Audio system installed: The main entertainment for the senior citizens is listening to music, bhajans and discourses. Many volunteer groups visit Akshaya home regularly to conduct music performance, bhajan sessions and talk shows. To enhance these events and also to play music regularly, a professional audio system with amplifier and mics was installed and is being used very effectively.·       Mosquito Protection: Mosquito menace is a major problem in the area where Akshaya is located. Many times, this leads to spreading of diseases and also discomfort to inmates during sleeping. Looking at the problem, a set of well-wishers came forward to provide mosquito nets to the windows of the entire building. After this, the problem has greatly reduced.·       Solar water heater installed: As the inmates are aged persons, there is a constant need for hot water for bathing and drinking in addition to cooking. A considerable amount of power is consumed to make the hot water every month. To reduce the monthly power cost and also to become more eco-friendly, large solar water heaters are installed with the support of few donors. Now there is an uninterrupted supply of hot water throughout the day.·       Solar Power plant- All the three units are installed with solar power plant to save operating cost. These units not only supply to our units but also export the excess power to grid when it is not used.·       Festivals and Tours – All festivals are celebrated in grand way so that inmates don’t miss any occasion. The healthy inmates are taken out once in three months to temples, beach and important places in Chennai so that they enjoy their last part of life.·       Entertainment: Many volunteers individually as well as in groups, visit our homes at regular intervals and present music shows, bhajans, game shows, magic shows and so on to keep the residents engaged and entertained.Systems and Procedures·         All our payments are received and made through a special software custom made for us. The software also stores donors' database, residents' data. Reminders for donation are also automated through this software.·       95% payments are received and made through digital mode.·       We have a volunteer internal auditor who checks all our financial transactions on a regular basis.·       We have an internal audit to check the various operations (cleanliness, record maintenance, food quality, residence grievances, etc) on a regular basis.·       Feedback from the donors is obtained on a daily basis and our average score so far is above 4.5 out of 5. ·       We are fully compliant with Government regulations, with all the valid licenses (fire, sanitary, building stability, 80 g, 12 AA etc) to operate at every unit.·      Employee welfare is one of our important focus areas. For all our employees we have ESI, PF, bonus, gratuity, family medical insurance coverage, accident insurance policy, and many such welfare schemes.·       We have an objective appraisal system for evaluation of employee performance on a regular basis.·       We have systems and procedures for admission, procurement, demise of a resident, etc. Well documented SOP is available for various tasks.Present Units:At present Akshaya homes are running at four locations, Mudichur, Pallikaranai Valasaravkkam, Pallavakkam and Vellappanchavadi .

About Udhavum Ullangal:Udhavum Ullangal (UU) was founded in 2000 with an aim to Serve the People in distress at the right time in a right manner. Education : UU strongly believes that Educating Under privileged Children is the right way to empower them and it will lead to a bright future for them. Also, that there are many children who are in need of financial support and not getting the same.  It is important to identify them and extend the support.With this in mind, UU has supported about 19,942 children through out Tamilnadu with an amount of Rs.3.95 crores and it has been given in the form of scholarship and educational aids. UU wants to ensure that the money is used in the best possible way and hence, uses a process to validate the application properly.Its task does not stop after giving the money. UU monitors the students , both at the school and collegiate level, and supports them to successful completion of their studies. There exists a Mentoring process, which enables the Mentor meeting the assigned students periodically , understanding the progress and problem and counseling them appropriately..Besides this, UU also conducts soft skill programs, interview facing techniques, sharing of experience from the Industry seniors etc.. Sincere effort is made to prepare the students to be successful ....UU also assists many children from the Child Labor Rehabilitation Program in Virudhunagar district, in terms of education, mentoring and rehabilitation.Here are some  beneficiaries, whose lives were changed with assistance from Udhavum Ullangal ....Mayakannan was identified from the Child Labour Rehabilitation program and UU supported him for his Engineering studies, which he completed it successfully. UU's mentor counseled him to take up Government exams and he was selected by the Railways. Now he is a Loco Pilot, standing on his own and also a mentor and supporter of UU's programs.Mahalaksmi is the daughter of parents working in a match factory. Udhavum ullangal supported her Engineering Education. During mentoring sessions she expressed her desire to become a Collector. Udhavum Ullangal facilitated it. Subsequently, she successfully completed Group 1 examinations and she has now become a Deputy collector in Tirunelveli district.Skill Development and Women Empowerment : In the Indian Context, another suffering group is that of Women below poverty line, most of whom are not skilled and who find it challenging to make both ends meet. In order to uplift them, the only way is to provide them with skills so that they stand on their own and support their families as well.With the help of a Corporate Sponsor, Udhavum Ullangal has established 4 skill development centres in Chennai, where UU provides training to poor and needy Women. So far we have trained 3400 women in Tailoring , Beautician course and Basic commercial computing skill such as Tally. At any instant, there are about 200 getting trained in these courses. The result of this program is such that , nearly 60 percent of these women get placed by the time they complete their courses or in a position to earn on their own. Health - Fight against Cancer :It has been observed that about 70 percent of those affected by Cancer seek Medical help only when they are in advanced stages (3rd or 4th stage) of Cancer, which makes the treatment more difficult and expensive. Because of poverty, illiteracy and absence of medical facilities, the Cancer afflicted people understand their illness late and seek medical help also late. This situation is prevalent in most of the Developing nations.In this scenario, Dr.Shantha , Chair person of Cancer Institute , Adayar, inspired and encouraged Udhavum Ullangal to engage itself in Creating Awareness and Screening the people in rural areas, Diagnose for Cancer early and help those identified with it, to get treated early so that precious lives of the poor could be saved. Udhavum Ullangal established Nellai Cancer Care Centre (NCCC) in 2012 at Tirunelveli and commenced its program to fight against Cancer.

It has supported 103 Cancer patients, many of whom are cured and are surviving. An important point here is that UU maintains a High risk registry of nearly 1500 people, whom it monitors closely and follows up with them.In addition, Palliative care to poor patients is being extended with Udhavum Ullangal nurses visiting them at their place of stay and providing required care and treatment. Cancer Hospital : Plans are afoot to establish a Specialty Hospital treating  patients suffering from Cancer and other such diseases as there is a huge need for such a facility. Ten or Five ?? acres of land has been acquired at Chengulam, Tirunelveli. Initial plans are being prepared now.Support during Natural Calamities : India has been suffering with regular frequencies with natural calamities such as Hurricane , Flood, Earth quake and Pandemic now. Udhavum Ullangal has been extending a helping hand and providing support to those affected.Approvals, Recognition  and Certification :Udhavum Ullangal is a Certified NGO by Charity Aid Foundation, Give India and Benevity.

The Banyan established in 1993, operates with the realisation that all people can reach mental, physical, interpersonal, social recovery when assisted with the required person-based resource investments. We have placed efforts to restore neighbourhood care capital through emergency and community-based mental health interventions aiding people on their paths towards emotional and physical well-being that invariably positions users to choose viable life goals. We are striving to establish and steadily promote best practices through our ongoing collaborations with governmental and non-profit initiatives. We endeavour to address community wellness by:<ul><li>Establishing ethical access to emergency mental health services</li><li>Delivering direct services to the people in various rural and urban settings</li><li>Strengthening distinct cooperation targeting community issues impacted by mental health </li><li>Sustaining a consciously committed team of professionals</li><li>Ensuring safe and affordable housing as a basic need in facilitating optimal mental health and well being</li><li>Securing social care for children, young adults and adults by providing personal care and other practical assistance as per requirement along with access to social entitlements </li></ul>75% of women who have used the services have recovered and journeyed back to their homes and families of origin. 60% of reintegrated women in the last five years remain in continued care to assist them in sustaining their recovery and prevent a lapse back into homelessness. Our approaches utilise user-centric and directed treatments, anchored via holistic care frameworks. These include: <ol><li>Emergency Care and Recovery Center (ECRC) and The Shelter: The ECRC in Mogappair has been accessed by over 3,000 homeless people with mental health issues, of whom over three-quarters have satisfactorily transitioned back to their families throughout India. Here people access emergency and critical care services and are provided food, shelter and clothing alongside health, reintegration and aftercare services. The Shelter we run in partnership with The Corporation of Chennai operates similarly for homeless men with mental illness. Post recovery, collective efforts to reintegrate users based on choice and provide needed long term aftercare services to maintain health and wellbeing is offered with the cooperation of carers and families creating pathways for social rehabilitation. </li><li>NALAM - Community Mental Health Care: is delivered through grassroots mobilizers. They identify psychological distress, offering referrals, counselling, clinical care, home visits, home-based care and social entitlements such as citizenship documents, loans, pensions, employment, etc. NALAM clinics spread across urban and rural locations also offer skills development and livelihood initiatives apart from the above mentioned psychological and social interventions for a range of age-groups. In Tamil Nadu, these are offered across 15 service access points in Chennai and Thiruporur districts, reaching out to a population of approximately 7 lakhs. Till date, more than 10,000 individuals have accessed these services with a current active registry of over 2000 individuals. In Thiruporur, Kattumannarkoil and Sriperumbudur Taluks of Tamil Nadu these are administered in partnership with National Health Mission. </li><li>Home Again: offers over 200 individuals with mental illness with sustainable long-stay care needs across a cross-section of low to high disability levels who live in homes as members of families formed in simple rural and urban neighbourhoods with residential daily assistance and case management. Apart from Tamil Nadu where this intervention was first piloted, the model has also been replicated in partnership with the Governments of Kerala and Maharashtra aimed at reducing the incarcerated count at state mental hospitals and the needs of those who continue to remain in psychiatric facilities for over a year or more.</li></ol>
