A warm Balnket for a Most Needy Old Age Person
In this year there is severe coldness in the winter season and a lot of challenged people with no proper housing and clothing and old age are being badly effected . Poor people are mostly engaged in labour work and they work without proper clothing and shelter and hence easily engulfed by coldness . Further, poor old age persons are the neglected section in the community and family and they don’t get proper clothing and housing facilities and hence face challenge in the cold seasons. In this situation there are death cases also in the state . In this circumstances the organization staffs visited Islampur blocks of Nalanda districts, Bihar (India) and identified most vulnerable persons , who are facing lack of clothing in the severe winter seasons and who don’t have any support and source of getting warm clothing . For the purpose the Organization staffs also conducted community meeting . Example : When organization staffs were doing field visit , they meet to ultra poor, a single and old age women who don’t have any fooding and clothing support . She lives by working as dai /labour work and her income is minimal , insufficient to fulfil her needs . She is unable to purchase warm clothes and during the visit her health was also not proper . In such circumstances she was selected for blanket support and provided blanket to her. After getting blanket she become very happy as she can sleep in the night without fear of coldness. Her health status is now improved and can do small work. She extended thanks to the Donor, Sugam jagriti and Global Giving Foundation for blanket support . She says it was impossible for her to purchase blanket and it might damage her health condition.
