Project on site
- We have done landscaping and planted saplings encircled around the compound wall. Being a Salt water belt with water scarcity, we are using the available water. On the other side of the project we have prepared a portion of the
land for kitchen gardening. We have planted local fruits and vegetables so that we can have our own produce.
- We have adopted three Indian Mongrel puppies for the Children’ Home. The puppies are now part of our family and are protecting us from trouble.
- Due to Salt water belt and water scarcity, measures are been taken to provide clean water for the Children’ home so that more children can be accommodated. We are in consultation with the local government Irrigation department and a project proposal has been proposed to the tune of Rs 845,000/- to provide good clean water for the Children Home. It was also suggested that this project can benefit the entire village.
