Conduit of Hope

Rani, 17, is from a small village in Uttar Pradesh. Eldest of 8 siblings, school, to her, remained a distant dream. Much against her wishes she was made the home-maker and care-giver to the younger children from a very tender age. But the yearning for education lingered on, unsatiated.

A visit to her aunt’s house in Madanpur Khadar, Delhi has changed her life. She is now a regular and keen student at our learning centre and tailoring centre.

Her dream is noble and unique. She wants to get back to her village and teach her friends in the village who have never been to school, utilizing her own resources.

HOPE SOMETIME HAS A NAME – “RANI


Skilful Artisans

The Khanjar community in the slums of Kalyanpuri sorts out garbage for a livelihood. These girls now have become skilful artisans lending grace to garments through their embroidering skills. The same group also runs a commercial catering unit.

This class has not only taught them skills to earn but has endowed them with confidence, courage and the precious and priceless Hope.

A NEW CHAPTER HAS JUST BEGUN…….  


A Small Loan But a Big Difference

Dukha Paswan, 46, is a native of village Bhairopatti in the Darbhanga District of Bihar. His meager income from a rented rickshaw was insufficient to provide even two square meals to his family of 6 members. Impoverished and hungry, their daughter’s marriage remained a distant dream.

Today, with a rickshaw provided to him on loan from the project, he earns an average of Rs.70 per day. His daughter is married. He has made a small savings of Rs.2000. nutritious meals and medical cares are now affordable to his family. He too has a dream – a brick house for his family.

This small step has to a large extent helped the family escape exploitation by the rich landlords.

HOPE CONQUERS POVERTY.
