At 80+ Ramaiah and Seshamma going through their toughest stage of life. Can we help them?

Ramaiah and Seshamma 80+ , are from the remote village in Kadapa District -AP (Dondlopally Village-Pullam Pet Mandal), from very humble backgrounds raised their 2 sons and a daugther with all their hard earned savings, got them educated and married. They never ever looked back to their elderly parents even for a visit. They now live in a small hut with hardly nothing to eat/survive on.

Their home cant even protect them from showers and can't imagine how they can manage this winter!

All they get is the Ration Rice, Good for a one time meal a day. As finger prints are not recorded correctly , "Old age pension" 1000/month was denied. Our ground partners are working with the local govt officers to fix this shortly.

Sneha Hastam Development Society and Chinna Sahayam Charitable Trust are our ground partners working to build a 1 room home and a bathroom, to provide them shelter for the rest of their lives.

Dear Supporters,

With a great sense of satisfaction, heartfelt thanks to every donor who joined us in this great effort.

Long live Humanity.

We have done "Gruha Pravasyam" for the new home and though the old man couldn't talk well. Our volunteers couldn't stop their tears to the gratitude he showed to all donors. We gave them new clothes and provisions for 6 months. We are already working with local MRO for "old age pension".

Thanks again. See you with a new Project.
