Summary
Prime Trust is trying to help the people living in the shadows of society in Pondicherry. We aim to establish a centre for the homeless and offer them services to improve their quality of life. Our project will provide empowerment, counselling, de-addiction and vocational training to help these individuals transition from a life of poverty to integrated members of our society.
Challenge
There are many communities living in Puducherry on pavements. They face many challenges such as poverty, living in an unhygienic atmosphere. The children are not sent to school and they are forced to pick rags and bring money. Through the government is supporting in a small way, they find hard to lead their life with limited financial access.
Solution
In 2017, we aim to support 10 homeless families with children at our Homeless Centre. At our Centre we provide services such as counselling, domestic violence protection, de-addiction and rehabilitation support. We will also arrange access to vocational training and micro-credit opportunities to help them achieve financial stability. Children will be provided proper education and access to any of the evening schools of Prime Trust.
Long-Term Impact
The objective of Prime Trust is to empower and support these individuals reintegrate into society without having to live on the streets. Updates Prime Trust with its team supports the individuals by providing awareness education on Saturdays provides counseling, support the children with school supplies. The children are motivated to attend evening remedial classes at our centre.
