    APPA+

    from Khammam, Telangana

Who we are: APPA+ is a HIV positive network of People Living with HIV/AIDS, formed and supporting each other towards improving quality life of People Living with HIV by promoting Livelihoods, Health, Education and Nutritional Interventions. APPA + (Asha Positive People Association) is registered as a Community based organisation (CBO) under Societies act in the district, Khammam, Telengana State, India. Project details: APPA+ identifies in many occasions that creating and promoting livelihoods for HIV + people will make them more confident in leading life without depending on others till the time they live. Support receiving from local donors in terms of food supplements/medicine will no longer find a viable solution unless teaching them how to 'fishing it'. Keeping in mind of compromised health conditions of HIV+ people, found a sustainable livelihood model/project 'saree falls and petti coats making unit' run and managed by group of HIV+ people. The unit will not only give them feed but more importantly confidence in life and respect in the society. To start a 'Saree falls and Petticoats making unit' thru the people living with HIV in Khammam dist., Telengana State, India. Make the HIV+ people empower socially thru financial independency and give them a dignified life. Lasting Impact with the proposed project: The impact will be in many folds right from health to economics and social to psychological; however, the 'saree falls and petti coats making unit' would bring a positive and healthy change in the entire community of HIV+ people in the District, State and in the Country towards self-independency rather than donor-dependency. The below are some specific ways of impact going to be created; - Healthy way of life would be possible as most of the time will be engaged in the work which will not allow to think about their disease. Thus it will give them more life to live -Positive way of life would also be possible because spending capacity while earning -Confidence in life due to financial independency -Social respect and decision making capacity to choose their own life -Financial empowerment to lead their life -Planning and supporting to have better life of their Children
