Visit to the home of those who maintain mine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kamraj Nagar (Ghatkopar) is located merely within a mile of where I stay. With a population of around 200K human beings, it is a home to most of the hygiene engineers (many of us call them maid servants) who are employed in the uptown and urban locality of a sizeable suburb of Mumbai.
Ironically, the health and hygiene conditions over there aren't in a great shape.
The purpose of our visit was to engage ourselves with the kids who come for various activities (academic tuitions and computer classes) at the institute which is run by a trust operated by noble people like Mr. Ratnam and few others.
While the kids relished the delicious brunch and blessed us by accepting the small gifts in form of school stationery (pens, pencils, erasers, sharpner, scale and pouch), we also were informed about various activities being conducted for local men and women at a very nominal cost. These activities include - tailoring classes, beautician courses and mobile repairing institute.
Additionally, a line up of 4 doctors visit on daily basis (except Sunday) from 10am to 10pm and cater to on a average 250 patients a day at a nominal fee of ₹5 per patient.
We could discover that the main challenge over there is the awareness related to health and hygiene. An average family household income of ₹10000 a month cannot afford high end nutrition plan but the know-how related to maintaining nutrition from basic household items can be of a great help. For hygiene, awareness related to waste management has a potential to do wonders.
Kindly help with any recommendations that you may want to share. If any can volunteer, we can plan such program(s) to support them.
ThanQ all.
With loads of love and prayers,
D
