Why am I fundraising?
Organization : Good Samaritans India, Hyderabad.

The phase of the sunset of life is the most trying time for those endowed with uncared health. It gets bad for those who are old frail and without any financial backup. In such circumstances if their families forsake them, the nightmarish unimaginable suffering of the elderly is unbearable. With failing health, no food and shelter, these elders are sometimes left on the roads or on pavements eating morsels thrown at them, surviving the vagaries of the weather and traffic , becoming ill and sometimes injured and without any hope or respite of future.
To give them a ray of hope we take these people to our shelter-home and provide them with food, shelter and free medicines, and take care of their needs providing them a life of dignity. Our unique service model is supported by three pillars: Philanthropy (Save), Volunteerism, (Spread) and Partnerships (Support). We currently have about 130 homeless elderly people in our Home for the Aged.
We seek earnestly from all who care about this large neglected segment of our society. To keep doing this good work continue we seek financial support. We provide basic amenities to the homeless elderly people including food, shelter, clothing and medical needs. The monthly expenses for this are Rs. 3000 - Rs. 4500 per person based on the medical needs. This is the maximum cost on an average and may decrease because of shared costs. Depending on the patient, if the case is very critical it may also exceed the amount greatly.
For these purposes we require funds and support from all kind people.

Dear All Donors,

Greeting to you all from GSI

We are very much excited to share with you some most memorable event happened at our NGO.

This is about Arjun who left his house Sagoda village of Rayagada Dist , Orissa in the year 2001 the family searched for him like any thing. Most of the village people and family considered he might be no more... but his mother is waiting with hope that he will come ..

Arjun who met with an accident in Hyderabad and was admitted in Govt Hospital later as there was no attendant he was shifted to our NGO for after care, he had frequent seizers Our team strongly searched for his family .. he was telling that he left his house long back so he don't remember except his family member names and the village Sagoda village , we reached SP of the Dist. Rayagada, and the SHO of the nearby Police Station.

The police personal were very interested to take up this task...
at last we found his family, they were so excited to see him whole village were waiting his mother no words to express her anxiety.
he rejoined with his family , His brother came to take him. When we asked him Arjun , he was not able to recognize his brother who came to take him. Because he was in 1st class Arjun was 5th standard, later wen he came to know. They both hugged and cried like any thing... it was very emotional moment. The SP and the Orissa Police especially Mrs. Padma Muttu CPO of Puttasing Police station appreciated our work.

We give all the credit to all our well wishers and our donors for this wonderful achievement, with you u all support this would have not happened. We thank you once again
we need your support to rejoin few more migrant people ... looking forward for you encouragement, love for these homeless migrant workers to reach their families.
