Addressing health care needs

Health is one of the core issues supported SHCCT. This programme addresses the health needs of 50 pre-school children. It educates children, especially girls, and aims at training staff through community awareness programmes, home visits, health check-ups, life-skills training sessions, cleanliness drives and competitions.

KARSHANA RATHOD 12-year-old child was diagnosed with TB during a routine health check-up camp organised by the NGO. KARSHNA a daily wage labourer, MOTHER too suffers from tuberculosis. The NGO referred KARSNA and his mother to a DOTS centre at the government hospital for proper treatment. A diet chart has been given to the family by the nutritionist and KARSNA and his mother are now being regularly monitored.

Empowering young lives

,

One of the most common problems faced by rural communities in India is the lack of quality education. This leads to an increased number of dropouts or poor academic performance. This programme enhances the quality of life of marginalised rural communities through holistic interventions. It sets up school-based education, health and nutrition programmes and women’s empowerment programmes in the area. The project is currently working with government schools in ten villages.

The story of varsha and his neighbour suman is typical of thousands of children across India, who miss out on going to school because of petty .

10-year-old anil suffers from Down’s Syndrome. His school takes care of children with multiple challenges and disabilities. It imparts basic education, general knowledge and opportunity for physical and mental development activities along with self-care. When anil first joined the special school, he struggled to form a complete sentence.

As much as 500 million of India’s total population live below the poverty level. These families live in living standards that are among the poorest in the world. Out of these 30% are the children. We aim at providing the input that will build the skills of these disadvantaged children so they can lead better lives.

As it is rightly said by Nelson Mandela ‘Sport has the power to change the world’ . An innovative way of building life skills is through sports. So we want to change their lives through sports. Sports require and teach discipline, confidence, team-work, patience, tolerance, etc which are essential components of life skills.

We have also been involved in starting a Sports league with children who came from very poor homes. There was an assumption that these would be a useful introduction to their lives; provide an opportunity that otherwise they may not have. That assumption seemed certainly true; it introduced a new art, opportunity for entertainment, values of competition and discipline.

Now We wish to take this Sports League for these children to next level by organising National level competition, buying them sports kit, Hiring Trained and professional coaches which could help these children learn experience about various sports and games. We wish to expand its operations and aims to be associated with more than ten thousand underprivileged adolescents in the Coming years.

To meet such aims it definitely requires large amounts as grants and funds. The major sources of financial support in the past were funds and donations made by family members and friends or any fundraising events (corporate sponsorships), but that are not enough. Lack of funds and donations limits us from hiring experienced people and this also impacts our intentions of expanding this much appreciated work to a greater level. So we are running a crowdfunding Campaign on India For Sports to gather funds for “Sports for Development” for these kids.
