Thanks to many of you, VOICE Trust could join with Global Giving in Washington DC and social activists of Ekkattuthangal - Manali – Velacheery – Tambaram in Chennai to rush relief supplies to 765 flood victims in January 2016. With your continued help, we added recovery programs during March 2016 for benefit of 450 flood victims. Educational supports were given to 2000 children in flood affected areas during June 2016 and also in September 2016.
During October 2016, the children of Manali Orphanage were given individual counseling for strengthening them to go forward in life. During November 2016, Manali school children were guided with intellectual games. During December 2016, VOICE Trust joined with local people to take steps for keeping the water ways clean to allow free flow of flood waters. This was the cause for 2015 floods.
Kalaipattarai – the local partner in Chennai has asked VOICE Trust to approach you and other friends to extend special helps for 24 flood affected women with sewing machines so that they can review tailoring enterprises to enhance incomes for meeting family needs. VOICE Trust appeals to all of you through Global Giving to help flood affected women for tailoring projects. One sewing machine with embroidery attachments will cost Indian Rupees 7,500/= your help will lighten up poverty experiencing families in flood affected areas of Chennai.
