You Can Help a Child

                                   

Let none be like another

Yet each be like the highest

How can that be?

Let each be perfect in himself

Women's Welfare

 

Since its foundation, our society has been dedicated to the task of helping women in difficult situations, become self reliant and independent.

 

We have consistently encouraged women who are destitute, abandoned, widowed or in dire circumstances to learn skills and professions and to stand on their own feet.

 

 

We initiated welfare schemes for  women at Sholinganallore and Karaipakkam by training them to set up their own vegetable gardens and sell the produce; dairy farming, in spirulina cultivation, baking, textile printing and batik.

 

Over the years, we have trained women in our creche training schemes, pre-primary education programs and teacher's training schemes to become economically independent.

 

We generate savings for orphan/destitute and poor girls to enable them to get married and set up their own households.

 

We have also consistently encouraged widow remarriage, inter-caste and inter-religious marriages for our staff members; we have promoted awareness of the importance of the girl child;  and have opposed practices which degrade women.
