Home for Homeless

By BALU | DIRECTOR

For every five people in this world, one  is without a home. Housing changes everything for a family and children living in poverty.  Inadequate Housing is one of the largest problems in the world today.  It is pervasive and overwhelming.  This approach to fighting poverty will have a direct effect on the efforts to reduce hunger, curb child marriage, empower women, reduce sickness, educate children and more.

Community-led improvements in housing, housing infrastructure and the local environment can have significant benefits for children and young people living in poverty. Increased security, healthier living conditions and access to improved facilities lay the foundation for children to learn, develop and eventually contribute to community development efforts as well as generating income .

This project is community participatory programme. The community will play critical role in selection of beneficiaries, raw material purchase and monitoring through the members of Self Help Group (SHG). This SHG is primarily formed for motivating the poor to involve in small savings and credit among themselves and stop the people from getting money from private money lenders at very high interest rate we motivated the people to form in to S.H.G. and involve them to help themselves. They have been                          

cultivated to involve in team work for common cause. We have formed 80 such groups and do lot of welfare activities. The dalits and tribal, who did not own any worth household articles at their huts, have     learnt saving practices after moving into their permanent houses and the it has   ultimately made them to be the proud owners of T.V. ceiling fan, cot, almirah, chairs    and tables and jewels on their houses.  The permanent houses have motivated them to look for the future optimistically. The life in tiny huts forced the dalits and tribal to   form a negative thinking that their  In life is doomed once for all and the their   children’s education can not bring any   change their life.  But the permanent houses  have transformed their pessimistic   attitudes and all the children   belonging to the families where we helped them to build houses,   are regularly attending  to the school now.

                                                 

The shift from huts to permanent houses has created a conducive environment for dalits and tribal to realize their worth as human beings and equal citizens.  They no longer feel that they are inferior to other sections. Hence with this one time assistance, we are not only helping the present generation to lead a dignified life and also the future generation.  We shall be greatly thankful to GLOBAL GIVING  if you could favorably consider this proposal, which can effect a positive change in the life of 50 poorest of the poor Dalit community families.
