Sahyog Care For You has felt the urgency to intervene to change the scenario. We understood that COVID 19 is dangerous for the country like India where majority of the population is un aware about it and Indian/State Government is seriously looking after to cure the problem through various means like lock down entire country and giving awareness on the issue while as an Non Governmental Organisation we have also to take a responsibility to support the cause with the help of the community people for the community. It is the fact that there is lack of information on the issue and proper requirements for managing situation.
We believe that proper information on hand washing, sanitation, education, crucial for the health of the citizen of India specially rag pickers who are directly contact with the waste. Equipping the rag picker and their families with adequate information and skills on proper hand washing maintaining hygiene and its management helps in empowering them with knowledge which enhances positively impacts on the issue.
The project aim to implement in and around industrial areas of Delhi and clusters where maximum rag pickers are residing especially the area which is most effected i.e. red zone of the CORONA effected area.
We implemented this project in Delhi ( Mundka,Tikri kalan ,Bhalaswa ,Gazipur and Madanpur khaddar). As these area are mainly waste management and landfill sites and ragpickers are staying nearby these sites.
