LET US TOGETHER TRANSFORM THE LIVES OF THOUSANDS OF GIRLS WHO HAVE LOST A PARENT/ PARENTS TO THE PANDEMIC AND GIVE THEM A BRIGHTER FUTURE.


THE CONTEXT



There are thousands of young girls who need help and support. Such instances have increased rapidly with children losing their parents to Covid-19. These children are vulnerable and are prone to anxiety and trauma. They are exploited and face sexual abuse, harassment, child trafficking and other illegal activities. Girls are more vulnerable and are the worst affected.



THE INITIATIVE

My campaign is focused on two aspects which will dramatically change the lives of girls by providing them with a safe and secure environment. 

1. Support the completion of 'MAKKALA DHAMA', a multi-dimensional residential home for 450 girls at Devanahalli Taluk, Bengaluru.

Funds required: INR 3.23 Cr

Sparsha Trust has been caring for these girls by running shelter homes since 2005. Girls are currently being housed in several rented houses across Bengaluru and this causes frequent changes in facilities, increased operational costs and disruption to critical development initiatives. There is an urgent need to increase it's capacity to accommodate more girls in a single campus with all amenities. 

Considering this, Sparsha Trust has envisioned a multi-dimensional state-of-the-art residential home called 'MAKKALA DHAMA' for 450 girls in Devanahalli Taluk, Bengaluru. This shelter home will give them the much-needed comfort and will help them grow into independent adults. Makkala Dhama will support girls who are homeless or have lost a parent/ parents to Covid. 

70% of the construction is already completed. This campaign will help raise funds to ensure that this project can be completed by June 2022.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • 2-acre property (12km from Bengaluru Airport).
  • 54000 sq. ft built-up area.
  • Plan is complete this by June 2022.
  • 15 Cr project, 3.23 Cr needed for completion.

2. Transform the lives of girls by supporting their stay, food, clothing, medical care etc. for an entire year.

Funds required: INR 1.35 Cr


This home is a safe haven and a secure location for these girls to grow up. Once the buildings are complete, the property will house 450 girls. Their entire costs of food, stay, clothing, medical expenses are taken care of. They will also be sent to the nearby Government school. They will have all the facilities required to help them excel. The cost to support a girl for an entire year is just INR 30000.


ALL FUNDING HAS 80G TAX BENEFITS.

ABOUT ME

My name is Gopinath R. I am a concerned citizen.

This campaign is extremely close to my heart. I have taken up this initiative because I think being able to impact the lives of young girls by giving them a safe and secure home with love and care would be incredible. This will transform their lives as they will grow up in a secure environment which will help them focus on their studies. Makkala Dhama will provide these girls with accommodation, food, clothing etc. and will also support their education at nearby schools. The shelter home will provide all the necessary facilities to help them grow into independent and responsible adults. This campaign will definitely give them hope, comfort and will positively impact their lives.

Please support my campaign as we can together support many girls and change their lives for the better.

Let us come together and make sure that the construction of this shelter home is completed quickly.

ABOUT SPARSHA TRUST


Sparsha Trust is a Bangalore based NGO founded by a handful of young graduates with master's degrees in social work. They began in June 2006. Sparsha provides shelters where slum and street children would be safe, where they would be nurtured, tutored and transitioned into mainstream schools.

Through it's various projects, Sparsha is transforming the lives of children, helping them to live a life of safety, security and dignity. Sparsha also provides opportunities for the children to do their best. While some of these projects are residential in nature, others are day-care projects and open shelters. At open shelters, children have the option of spending the day in the center and may choose to stay the night or return to their homes. As a result, for the first time in their lives, from morning to night, the children are able to study, play, eat, express themselves and sleep without the fear of becoming victims of neglect or abuse.


TAX BENEFITS

Funding for this campaign is eligible for tax breaks as NGO is a registered trust and you can avail of benefits under section 80G of the IT act. Funding from those with foreign passports is not eligible. If you are an Indian staying abroad you can fund this campaign. 


FEEDBACK THAT YOU GET

To ensure that there is complete transparency I shall get a report from SPARSHA TRUST (this takes between 1 to 3 months usually after the funds are raised and transferred to them) telling me about the progress of the construction. The details will then be posted on the UPDATES section of my campaign. As soon as I post an update, the platform will send an  EMAIL alert to all the funders - i.e. to you. Click on the link on the email and you can read about which child benefitted. That's transparent right.
