Dear Friends,
I hope this message finds you in good health and spirits. I am excited to share some inspiring updates from our Child Labour Elimination Vocational Training (CLVT) program in Rajgangpur, Odisha. Your unwavering support continues to create positive change in our community. Here’s what we’ve achieved together:
Tailoring Training for a Brighter Future: In April 2024, we started our 3rd batch of tailoring training. This program is currently empowering 24 unemployed girls, giving them valuable skills and hope for a better future. With the generous support of Dalmia Cement Bharat Ltd., these young women are gaining the knowledge and confidence needed to build sustainable livelihoods.
Your support and generosity are transforming lives. By providing these girls with vocational training, we are not only helping them gain employment but also enabling them to become self-reliant and independent.
Thank you for being a part of this journey and for believing in the potential of these young women. Together, we are making a lasting impact.
With gratitude,
Ashok Dandpat

Dear Friends,,
It's with great enthusiasm that we bring you the latest updates from our Child Labour Elimination Vocational Training (CLVT) initiative. Your support continues to illuminate paths of hope and transformation for many.
Training and Empowerment:
- We celebrated the completion of our 2nd batch of tailoring training on January 22, 2024. This three-month program has not only equipped our participants with valuable skills but also opened doors to new opportunities. As we bid farewell to this batch, we're excited to announce the commencement of the 3rd batch training starting in April. Your support is sowing seeds of independence and creativity.
World Oral Health Day Celebration:
- In a special initiative on World Oral Health Day, we organized a comprehensive screening camp at the SANTI orphanage in Ranibandh. With the esteemed presence of the superintendent of CHC Rajgangpur and the Director of SANTI NGO, we provided screenings and treatments for 24 children. Each child was given necessary materials and oral hygiene packs, empowering them with the tools for healthier futures. The day was marked by a pledge-taking ceremony and an invaluable oral hygiene talk by Dr. Soumendra Lenka from CHC Rajgangpur, enriching our children's knowledge and awareness about oral health.
These initiatives reflect our ongoing commitment to not just eliminating child labor but also to nurturing well-rounded individuals equipped with the skills and health awareness to lead fulfilling lives. Your continued support makes these life-changing programs possible.
Thank you for standing with us in these endeavors. Together, we are creating waves of positive change, one child at a time.
With deepest gratitude,
Ashok Dandpat
