About This Cause
Destitute Home: Problems of aged and the infirm are becoming more complex today. In India, the aged constitute about 7.5% of the total population. A large portion of the aged is living in villages where poverty is wide spread. The young people seeking employment outside the villages tend to leave the elderly behind unattended. The elderly are left in isolation and loneliness. An important need of the aged is to get “CARE” to meet their economic, social and psychological needs. A satisfactory accommodation, enough food, care and certain facilities that maintain human dignity are needed. Seeing this, MOB RHC has begun an initiative recently - home for destitute women at Mandya. It is a 20 bed centre with a medical room. We have 5 staff members managing this centre including a full time nurse. We also provide counselling services and treat patients suffering from ulcer of any kind. We constantly work to reunite them with their families, refer patients suffering from serious illnesses to better equipped hospitals, and ensure care and dignity to the homeless and the destitute.

So far 82 SHGs (Self Help Groups) of women, comprising 1400 members, have been formed. These Sanghas have monthly meetings and monthly savings scheme. They have been able to save by themselves Rs. 53,34,880/=. Besides this, they have received Rs. 1,37,11,000/= as loans from the banks. These savings are redistributed among the group members according to their needs. These women were able to help other people in the villages in their emergencies. With the economic progress they made they are able to live a better life and send their children including the girls to schools for their basic education and even higher education, which was not possible before. These Mahila Sanghas form different committees (environment, education, economic, leadership, health, social, and cultural) in order to function in an organized and systematic way. All the SHG groups have their own accounts in bank. These Mahila Sanghas are registered as Chilume Vokkutta, Mandya.
