In a country of rapidly increasing elder population and subsequent growing concerns to ensure that their later years are lived with economic & social security and dignity, we start tracking senior citizens who are not supported by their families and who have worked hard all their lives but did not have any pension facility, and provide monetary support to them. Currently Under this program we are assisting 14 senior citizens. In the near future we are planning raise funds for retirement homes for the elderly people who are alone, face health problems, depression and loneliness.

In India the number of elderly women is more than that of elderly men. Nearly three out of five single older women are very poor, and two out of three rural elderly women are fully dependent on others for want of appropriate livelihood opportunities towards economic security.

We thrive to builds upon innovative pilot projects and strategic partnerships to extend a helping hand and to protect the rights of India’s elderly and provide relief to them through various interventions. In India old age home or you can say retiring home is now became a very familiar concept. But it has also greener and darker side of life. Some people stays here with deep pain, and some people stays with a easy way settling their last stage of life .But we cannot ignore the fact that old age homes are giving shelter to those who is homeless or who is orphan even after having a home. Having an every possible, reasonable, practical perception on this we have running this program on the discussed topic widely across the country. What we want to mention is your little harmless help (in the form of money or free service) can brighten their autumn.

To inculcate a sense of harmony and feelings of love and co-operation a visit to Old Age Home was organized for the students. Guided by a desire to create a home away from home, old age home is designed to provide residents with a relaxing yet structured life.

All efforts are made to insure that the residents live together as a single family unit by maintaining a cordial atmosphere, Our school children, distributed food items, clothes, toiletries etc. were collected and packed to contribute to the destitute and the displaced senior citizens.

The students spent quality time with them by singings hymns and their favourite songs and helped them to forget their loneliness and pain of separation from their dear ones.

while visiting an old age home children learn that its just not by giving the money only, its also the love one shares from the experienced souls. Thankfully, there are some things in our life which holds more importance than a piece of paper.
