Our elders need us, say NO to elder abuse!

SENIOR CITIZENS NEED YOUR SUPPORT!

We believe that every elderly person should be able to age with grace and autonomy, and we are working to provide the resources and infrastructure necessary to make this possible.


Elder abuse is a serious problem that affects many older adults in India. It can take many forms, including physical, emotional, financial, and sexual abuse. Elderly people who are abused may be afraid to speak out or seek help, and as a result, the abuse may go unnoticed and continue for a long time. To combat this issue, it is essential to raise awareness of elder abuse and provide support to victims. This includes developing laws and policies to protect the elderly from abuse, providing education and training for caregivers and healthcare professionals, and creating safe spaces where elderly people can report abuse without fear of retaliation.
Moreover, social isolation and loneliness are also significant issues affecting the elderly population in India. Many elderly people live alone or with family members who are too busy to provide them with social interaction and companionship. This can lead to depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues.
To address this problem, it is essential to create community-based programs that provide social activities and support for the elderly. These programs can include things like senior centers, community groups, and volunteer programs that connect elderly people with others in their community. It is crucial to recognize the challenges facing the elderly population in India and take action to address them. Providing affordable and accessible healthcare services, protecting the elderly from abuse, and addressing social isolation are all important steps that can be taken to improve the lives of elderly people in India.
It is essential to invest in these areas to ensure that the elderly can age with dignity and respect.

Hamari Pahchan NGO, is committed to changing society's perspectives towards the elderly and providing them with comprehensive care. We recently provided a wheelchair to an underprivileged elderly person  because we believe that every elderly person deserves the freedom to move around comfortably. It brings us joy to be able to help in every way possible.we believe that every elderly person deserves access to essential resources and a happy and safe environment.
"We understand that a lot of senior citizens  may feel isolated and lonely, especially if they don't have family or friends nearby. That's why we help them to join an old-age home where they can be properly taken care of and connected with others.  
"We believe that every contribution, no matter how small, can make a difference in the lives of aging individuals in need. Your support can help us continue our work and reach more and more people in need."
Hamari Pahchan has come up with an initiative for our elderly; we plan to distribute comfort kits to those in need:
1 Kit for 1 elderly person = Rs.800/- for 3 months.
1 Kit for 1 person for a year = Rs. 3120/- approx. (Comfort Kit for the elderly includes a hot water bag, age-appropriate medicines, thermometer, blankets (according to season), energy drinks like Glucon D and a mosquito repellant spray.

Your small contribution will make a big difference to our endless efforts towards providing senior citizens with proper nutrition and more importantly, a shoulder to lean on.
