Dear GlobalGiving Benefactor,
You did not just make a donation—you saved a life. Because of your extraordinary generosity through GlobalGiving USA, neglected elderly women in Tamil Nadu are breaking free from the crushing cycles of poverty, starvation, and absolute isolation
Your support provides far more than medical care. You are restoring comfort, confidence, and human dignity to grandmothers who thought the world had completely forgotten them.
Laxmi’s Story
For over eight decades, Laxmi did what mothers do: she quietly sacrificed everything to nurture her family. Yet today, at 82 years old, she lives entirely alone in a remote village in Tamil Nadu. Despite having two sons, she was abandoned to face the brutal reality of aging by herself.
BEFORE YOUR GIFT: she was Bedridden, abandoned, isolated, Suffering from chronic pain, relief, and constant hope
"I am eating, drinking, everything—all my activities happen on this bed," Laxmi shared, her voice heavy with the weight of abandonment. But you changed her story.
Through your recurring support, healthcare team now brings the hospital directly to Laxmi's bedside. We track her vitals, manage her pain, and deliver life-saving medications consistently.
"The doctor is like God for me," Laxmi says, filled with emotion. "He comes, checks on me, and gives me my medicines. I am never left alone."
Beyond the prescriptions, your gift funds vital human connection. Our visits bring laughter, deep conversation, and the emotional reassurance that she is deeply valued. Today, Laxmi lives free from overwhelming pain and burdens, spending her days praying for the health and success of her donors.
Laxmi is one of thousands. Elderly women's health is often the very first thing neglected in impoverished communities. Through our dedicated Old Age Care Centre, CHHASE India is systematically dismantling this cycle of neglect via a holistic support system:
Now she in enjoying Free, accessible treatments and routine bedside health checks, Mental health counselling and hospital referrals.

You are the luminous source of love these women look for in their darkest seasons. Thank you for giving Laxmi—and many like her—their lives and dignity back.
With deepest gratitude,
Team CHHASE India
