For a mother who has spent her entire life loving and raising her child, being beaten and mercilessly thrown out onto the streets by her own son is too heartbreaking to overcome. But this is a common story among the elderly residents of the Guru Vishram Vridh Ashram. “I’ve seen mothers in old and torn clothes, their bodies smelling and their hands and feet rotting and covered in maggots,” shares Dr. G.P. Bhagat, founder of the ashram. These abandoned elderly men and women lay starving on the streets hoping for someone to rescue them from their suffering. But most people walk past them without a second glance. “Like this”, Dr. Bhagat explains, “many elders die on the roads.”Since 2003, SHEOWS (Saint Hardyal Educational and Orphans Welfare Society) has rescued over 10,000 elderly people from the streets and given them a home with care and support. The elderly staying at the ashram have all been abandoned by their families and have nowhere else to live. Your support can give them comfort after their abandonment.

The Guru Vishram Vridh Ashram has a dedicated rescue team that saves the elderly from the streets and gives them immediate medical care upon their arrival at the home. To tend to the multiple health complications of the seniors, the home has a medical facility with doctors and nurses, a physiotherapy unit, a pathology lab, a digital X-ray monitoring machine and a pharmacy to provide 24-hour care to older adults anytime they require assistance, even during emergencies. Dr. Bhagat prioritizes the health of the seniors and ensures that they receive three balanced meals a day based on their precise health requirements. Need for the fundraiserThe humanitarian mission of SHEOWS is making an impact in the area, as more and more people are being rescued and brought to Guru Vishram Vridh Ashram. To meet the financial costs of running the home, SHEOWS needs support to continue providing the residents with all the facilities that they need. This includes constant care and round-the-clock medical attention, nutritious food and maintaining a hygienic environment to keep the seniors in comfort and good health. Dr. Bhagat explains that as the number of residents is increasing, SHEOWS needs support for food and medicines. “I request you to help these elderly parents lead a peaceful life.”Donate now to help Dr. Bhagat continue caring for the 500 destitute elderly and giving them shelter, food, medical care and the will to carry on living despite their tragic abandonment by their families. Your support will enable SHEOWS to keep serving abandoned senior citizens and help them recover from the trauma of abandonment and life on the streets. “I have been serving these elderly as if they were my own parents”, shares Dr. Bhagat. “I want only one thing - their tears should vanish and they should have a smile on their faces.” To help Dr. Bhagat achieve this dream, your support is critical. Donate now to help SHEOWS care for more abandoned elderly. Donate to this fundraiser by Give, India’s largest online donation platform, to support SHEOWS in their mission to rescue the abandoned elderly from the streets and give them shelter, food, medical care, recreational activities and emotional support.

“They insert a candle in the vagina, fingers are inserted (in the vagina) and tortured, and if children don’t relent even then, they put chilli powder so that children will say “yes” because of the burning of the skin… There are teeth marks on their bodies, and their vaginal parts are burnt. When children stay in these conditions, it is painful even to hear,” says Lalitha SA of Society for Participatory Integrated Development (SPID), in course of talking about many heart-rending stories of trafficked children in red-light areas.In over three decades, the SPID led by Lalitha, has saved over 3000 children from the red-light areas, many from clutches of sex trafficking.Sadly, many more children need to be rescued and in need of a loving home.

Indigenous art forms of Jharkhand are on the verge of extinction. In the online age when people are looking for more avenues of entertainment, and when the internet and Googling have become the easiest way to knowledge and entertainment, traditional art forms of the Santhal Pargana are in need of a revival. The last few practitioners of Sohrai-Khovar and Jadu Patiya, a form of painting and storytelling, say their art forms may soon be lost.WWY has been working for the development and promotion of the livelihood of artisans, especially in Below Poverty Line(BPL) in Hazaribagh, Ramgarh and Chatra districts. These artisans generally belong to the OBC and ST, SC communities’ women with very low-income groups. In some low-income other societies, women are also engaged in Hand Painting Artworks.Need of Project:-The targeted artisans belong to weaker Socioeconomic backgrounds and the livelihood support in terms of the development of their skills and promotion of micro-production/ processing units will help their economic development.- In many districts of Jharkhand, there has been a rich tradition of Sohrai- Kohvar. The Sohrai and Kohvar art are the two main GI tagged folk arts of Jharkhand. Both these paintings depict the development of human civilization. Natural colours are used in both these paintings. In one hand, the GI tagged paintings(Sohrai and Kohvar) of Jharkhand are gradually getting popularity. Besides, the artist of traditional painting has been reduced drastically as they were not able to secure regular income from it. They were also not able to promote their art on the regular market. They were unable to link their product with the modern time which resulted to have almost no income from their art and they started to leave the art and transfer it to the next generations.- These SHG members form the traditional cluster of the Sohrai Kohvar and are able to partially support their family livelihood through the contribution of manual labour and traditional skills they have inherited.- A planned effort towards their skill formation/ up-gradation and hand-holding of these skilled women for their evolution as micro/entrepreneurs leading to enhanced livelihood, the project will be of immense help.- A planned and organized effort with support for the establishment of a cluster demonstration unit will immensely help in the promotion of GI Tagged Sohrai Kohvar Paintings with diversified products painting/crafts/toys/ other utility goods in the district which may be cater to local market demand of the adjoining district namely Hazaribagh, Ramgarh, Ranchi and Chatra etc. - Given the established market demand, easy sourcing of raw material as well requisite equipments by us, the project will witness take off a good production cluster in the region. Traditional paintings of Jharkhand have a lot to teach us as these are inspired by nature, made up of natural materials and communicate nature’s message of peace and harmony. The proposed project is our sincere effort to preserve and promote these immensely important icons of our cultural heritage. WWY came across as a vision in 2018 after knowing the deteriorating conditions of these art forms and their artisans. Since then, we have been trying to improve the lives of traditional artisans by promoting their work and providing then market linkages. We have also been teaching these to the needy and most importantly to our coming generation.The proposed project envisages promoting modern and professionally skilled production clusters of quality Hand Painting and artworks in the Hazaribagh and Ramgarh districts of Jharkhand, with following actions: • Creating a Sohrai-Kohvar Based Hand Painting Production cluster of artisans • Capacity building through vocational training of 150 women artisans for Livelihood promotion• Skill/Professional Development through training on management related aspects• Strengthening the bank linkage &amp; market development.• Mobilizing bank and/or another micro-financing linkage.• Counseling on essential aspects of Social &amp; Gender Development for up gradation of livingpatterns of beneficiary participants. • A cluster of skilled women artisans in Sohrai Kohvar and Paitkar Artwork like utility and decorative items and related items will be formed.• A regular production unit with moderate capacity will be established with market linkage.• Activity based Credit linkage of the cluster will be ensured.• A production unit will be established
