Respected Donor,
Warm Greetings from CHHASE.
We are very happy to inform you that our charity is Top Ranked and Vetted Charitable organization for the year 2019 by the USA 501c3 Tax Deductible Charity GlobalGiving Foundation.
CHHASE and the beneficiaries wish you and your family "A HAPPY PONGAL " !! Pongal is mainly celebrated to convey appreciation to the Sun God for a successful harvest.
The harvest festival is celebrated over four days with each day having a different ritual. Here is how Pongal is celebrated in Tamil Nadu. The first day of Pongal is celebrated by paying respect to the rain gods who are responsible in ensuring a good crop year.
The Pongal festival, of all the festivals being celebrated throughout Tamil Nadu today by all regions population, has special significance for two reasons. First, it is the harvest festival of the Tamil nadu state and the neighboring south Indian states. It is being celebrated from time immemorial; it is a thanks giving festival - the farmers thank the life-giving sun and their cattle; others thank the Mother Nature and the farmers for producing a bountiful crop and keeping us all alive. The festival is observed annually exactly on the same day (first day of the month of Thai - co-eval with the 14th or the 15th of January of the western Gregarian Calendar. The Tamils follow the solar calendar. Originally, Tamil New Year Day was celebrated on the Pongal Day and not on the first day of the month of Chithirai. This day was celebrated as the beginning of the ilavenil season ( the spring festival ).
“In this happy occasion, all our beneficiaries took oath that they will use our services to come out of poverty.”
CHHASE strive to provide skill trainings to improve status of the poor women and girls. CHHASE visit rural villages (Project areas) regularly for the necessities & immediate need for the poor women and girls development. We discuss with them for the skill training needs. As per their desire we provide skill trainings. After training, some of the women interested to go for a job. We provide them placement in nearby companies. Few women are interested in starting own business, but they are unable to start own business because of their inability to buy the infra for the business. We analyse their back ground and help them with materials to start their own business. All our beneficiaries are either gained employment or started own business.Now they are all able to earn & feed their children and educate them. All donations to this project will exclusively support the development of poor women .
