Food aid for disabled and underprivileged children

Food Aid for disabled and underprivileged children

(Project # 71732 from Balajothi Centre for the Disabled)

Funding goal : $ 50,000   / Funds raised to date : $ 40.50

Project Report due date : Dec 11, 2025 / Report sent on Nov 29, 2025

We thank YOU DONOR, for your incredible giving of $ 40.50 to date to support this noble cause of helping disabled and underprivilege children, who are neglected and discarded by society.   

Our vision has expanded from Bangalore to Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) of Karnataka. The Gold Fields, where mining has stopped, has left many negative effects on the environment and people's health. The parents who are affected themselves are not in a position to cater to the needs of their affected children nor can they leave them behind and go to other cities looking for jobs. We are supporting them by providing their monthly groceries and necessary medical assistance for sustenance.

The funding goal is $ 50,000 and we look forward to helping these children with your incredible giving support.

Challenge

There are hundreds of families with special children who are completely bedridden. The families, especially with single parents, are unable to provide for their sustenance as they are unable to leave the child alone and go out for work. As a result the child as well as the family struggles for their daily bread.

Solution

Through Balajothi's food aid program we are able to provide rice and other essential food grains such as rice, dal, cooking oil, sugar, and healthcare products such as diapers, catheters and others to these children every month. Currently we cater to over 30 special children which keeps them in good health with nutritious meals.

Long-Term Impact

In the long term these children will be protected from malnutrition and other health problems till as long as the child is alive. This is a long term project and will continue as long as we receive funds from GlobalGiving's fund raising platform.
