Save orphaned and abandoned children

Like all proud Indians and NRIs, we too, want to make India a better country. Even after the typically fierce “but India has a great history” retort, we look down embarrassed and helpless in terms of our rural youth being misguided and unemployed. The education system in rural India suffers both on poor infrastructure as well as an abysmal quality of education.A short clip above gives an overview of our work. Also there are related articles by Dr. Rishikesha T Krishnan, Director, IIM Indore. We have been very lucky to have had the stalwarts from the education &amp; social entrepreneurship sector (Professors from IIM Indore, Bangalore, Udaipur &amp; TISS; Caring Friends, Mumbai, Other NGO entrepreneurs like Vinayak Lohani) and tie-ups with institutions like Head-Held High &amp; Goonj Delhi) guide us through our journey of trying to bring around this paradigm shift. 
 We need your contribution to help the youth realize their dreams. Lets together give them our support and guidance and do our part in giving back to the society we feel proud to be a part of!SSES through its educational initiative SSISM empowers the rural youth with access to quality higher education and employment opportunities. It offers graduation courses with transportation to rural students from the interiors of Madhya Pradesh (70 KM radius). Free computer access education is provided to school children. Special focus is on girl education and parent counseling. Out of 1050 students; 70% are girls, few being university toppers. SSES provides placement &amp; entrepreneurship opportunities to students by exposing them to current industry needs every 6 months via industry visits, training, updated curriculum, vocational training etc. Spoken English classes from Head-Held High, Bangalore headed by CNN IBN Awardee aims to bridge the crucial communication gap that poses a big challenge of these students. 
 SSES target to impact minimum 10,000 direct beneficiaries per year. These include students, their families and all who wants to become self reliant.Since 2010; we have imparted courses &amp; training's to nearly 6000 people. A paradigm shift from being aloof to being aware and focused to parents encouraging their girls to study and become independent have been our key achievements. Some of the achievements are: 1050 total students, 60% girls from 200 villages, 4000+ villagers trained in the basics of computers, 10+ entrepreneurship projects, 14 university toppers, 3 university sports captain and 70+ placements in national and multi-national companies.SSISM alumnis being role models, girls making an exemplary mark by being independent and proving themselves, Emergence of local entrepreneurs. Girls who decide to stay in village are much sought after as teachers at primary and secondary schools, allied industries and occupations like dairy farming, retailing, etc. They are proving to be more aware and dedicated for their family occupation, like farming.

Empower rural youth for a brighter future

Disadvantaged students face many obstacles when trying to pursue an education. The expense to go to school combined with their parents expectations for their children to work and earn a living, means many discontinue their education. This leads to poor employment options in the future.In a country like India, where the majority of the population are youths, the overall effect of this problem multiplies. Societies progress and the economies growth rate both deteriorate as so many people are uneducated. 
 We have started an initiative to support bright but underprivileged students post the 10th grade to pursue further studies in literacy; leading to employment. We cover the cost of scholarships, books, and all skill training.Each student is carefully selected based upon academic performance and economic assessments. Our volunteers visit student’s homes to get a better understanding of their financial situation. As we have such a big network of volunteers covering a vast area, we can ensure that we reach as many students as possible. 
 Through our efforts and the support of others like you, more than 5000 students have received employment through Vidya Poshak and over 4000 students have reached the next level of literacy. Also, 60 free of cost rural book banks have been opened where students can borrow books and educational material.

Education

Hope Home Foundation wishes to create a system which is always focused on education and its importance. Education teaches you to value, makes you independent, and tech-savvy, makes you aware of the wrong practices, helps you know what you deserve, your rights and freedom and a lot more than you can imagine. It changes your perspective towards life. Education has the power to make you stand up against the wrong habits, behaviour and nature of society. One of the personal benefits of education is that it helps one understand the difference between facts and superstitions. You don’t let yourself become a victim of wrong beliefs. Plus, you also guide others as to not believe anything without complete research. Research is an essential skill, and education helps you enhance this skill. Schools and colleges promote a research-based approach by including it in their curriculum. It keeps you updated with everything happening around you. Now, if you ask me how education makes life better, why is it important? What’s the need for it? Then you have the answer.

Dear Friends and Supporters, Last month, we launched the **"Nourish Their Future: Monthly Grocery Fund for Hope Home Foundation"** with a goal of raising **₹1,00,000** to ensure that every child in our care receives the nutrition they need. Thanks to the generosity of our initial donors, we've raised **₹12,000**—a wonderful start, but we're still a long way from our goal. Every rupee you contribute directly impacts the health and well-being of these children, ensuring they have the strength and energy to thrive in their daily lives. Your support helps provide essential groceries that form the foundation of a healthy diet, something every child deserves. If you haven't had a chance to contribute yet, or if you know someone who might be moved by our cause, now is the perfect time to make a difference. No contribution is too small, and together, we can bridge the gap to reach our goal. Let’s come together to make sure that no child at Hope Home Foundation goes to bed hungry. Your compassion can nourish their future. **How You Can Help:****Donate** : https://r.give.do/JsiWWfZL to contribute to the Monthly Grocery Fund.**Share** : Spread the word about our fundraiser with your friends, family, and social networks.**Engage** : Follow us on social media and share our updates to keep the momentum going.https://www.instagram.com/hopehomefamily/ Thank you for being a part of this journey.

The loss of one or both parents confronts a child with immense psychological and social problems as well as reducing a child's chances of starting, continuing or completing school. As they grow older, they are also vulnerable to sexual abuse. These risks and other vulnerabilities are also likely to harm their future livelihoods as well. There are no shortcuts or quick solutions to these problems facing orphans and vulnerable children. A sustained commitment to protecting and improving the lives of these orphaned children is required so as to ensure that their needs are addressed through actions at the local level so that interventions made can achieve the widest possible impact. 
 Hope Home envisages laying a good foundation and bringing up orphaned and other vulnerable children in a way which will enable them to live in any setting rural or urban. The idea is to give children exposure to education, and community life &amp; provide them with skills. The intention is not to turn them into labourers, but to orientate them to real community life experiences so that when they are adults, they shouldn’t be beggars and dependent but self-reliant and happy to engage in productive work.
