PROJECT # 24535 – HOME FOR 150 DISABLED ORPHAN KIDS AT MYSURU, INDIA

REPORT DUE ON : FEB 9, 2018

DATE SENT : JAN 29, 2018

Homeless people in Vancouver, British Columbia, have a new way to find nighttime accommodations. A local charity, RainCity Housing, has created specialized benches that convert into temporary shelters. The back of the bench pulls up to create a roof that can shield a person from wind and rain. At night, these sleeping spaces are easy to find because they feature a glow-in-the-dark message that reads : THIS IS A BEDROOM.

As much as food is important for survival a good shelter is equally important for the welfare of mankind. As population keeps increasing the world over so also the need for shelter. This applies, and more so, to the disabled and the orphaned. All over the world governments and social service agencies are striving to provide this vital need through various methods.

Even at the lowest level Balajothi is working ceaselessly to create a small but effective way to contribute in this vital service. Passionate and committed to the core, we are fighting against odds to get a piece of land which can be a haven to the underprivileged so they can live out their lives in peace and in harmony with nature. We need one acre of land which would be just sufficient to meet this need and we need your support to achieve this.

Against the projected cost of $75,000 we have raised, from your generous giving through GlobalGiving, donations of $2554.25 to date. We are grateful to you for donating to this project despite adverse economic conditions.

Because of the size of funds required every dollar contributed will help. Your generous donation is very encouraging and also a motivation to others to donate in a similar manner. We understand that while some projects are small and are achievable in a short period of time, Balajothi’s SNEHAGOODU (nest of friendship) is one which may take longer time, unless a donor comes forward with a substantial funding, and this is what all of us at Balajothi are praying and hoping for …!!

Date of Report - Nov 11, 2017 - Report due on Dec 2, 2017

A young man worked hard and had great success, but he seemed very sad. His father noticed this and stopped by to talk to him; the young man was surprised when, instead of asking about work, his father asked how much time he was spending with his family.
“With all the demands of this job, I have very little time for that,” he replied.
“That sounds like what my father used to say,” his father said. “Every day I would wait by the window for him to come home, and every day I would fall asleep before he came”.

He added “For the sake of your children, and for the sake of their children, no matter how much work you have, try to make it home every night in time to tuck them in. You cannot imagine how much you will be doing for them — and for yourself.”

After many hours of looking for food, a bird returns to its nest, taking supreme comfort in a place that is warm and safe, far removed from the dangers and distractions of the world outside.

Your home and family are your nest, the center of your life, the hub from which all your daily experiences extend. Both as children and adults, our home and family are where we should feel most comfortable in the world. They determine how you make your life decisions; they shape your attitudes, your awareness, your self-esteem. A healthy home life is obviously a vital ingredient in the pursuit of a meaningful life.

This is what Balajothi has set out to do – to create a home for homeless differently abled children, who are uncared for and discarded by society. Take a look at the children in the attached pictures. The very name of the Project ‘Sneha goodu’ translates into ‘nest of love’. This home for the disabled will be a ‘nest’ which will include all the ingredients that makes a place want to be lived in, to be safe, secure, comfortable and loved. Don’t you agree ??

Through your generous donations Balajothi has received $955 to date. We have a long way to go to raise the remaining amount. I sincerely request you to spread this message to your family and friends circles so that they too could join hands with you to make this project a reality very soon and create a beautiful home where the underprivileged differently abled can spend their lives in peace and perfect harmony with nature. It is our duty and responsibility as a civilized society. We owe it to them…

With your sustained help we are confident of achieving this dream !!!

Project Report on Home for 150 orphaned disabled children in Mysuru, India (Sneha goodu) # 24535

Date of Report : Sept 2, 2017

Report due on : Sept 4, 2017

At the outset Balajothi thanks all the donors who contributed to support this worthy cause seeking to provide the much needed residential facility for the disadvantaged disabled children. Against the projected cost of $ 75,000 we have raised donations of $ 955 to date.

Thank you Donor especially for your selfless donation to realize this much needed facility.

Every one knows the importance of a having a permanent shelter, or home, by whatever name called. Majority of people pine for a home of their own as it means safety, security and permanency. As one of the fundamental needs we all strive and work to own a place of our own. It is sad to know that this basic need can never be fulfilled in the life of a disabled person. Balajothi is striving to meet this fundamental and most important need in the life of such a person, and thus envisioned this project. In order for the project to move forward and produce effective results of realizing this dream we at Balajothi invite more kind hearted people to come forward and donate generously.

We envisage the process as under :

Acquiring an acre of land – phase 1

Fencing and landscaping - phase 2

Construction - phase 3

Equipping - phase 4

‘ Your home should become a light that illuminates the entire street and community — The Rebbe ‘

Surely, Balajothi’s home for the disabled will be such a light to the disabled community.
