February 19, 2018

Respected Patrons,

Warm Greetings to you from Health Education Adoption Rehabilitation Development Society (HEARDS) – India!

As the New Year has been started and at this outset HEARDS Team wishes your year 2018 are filled with good health, prosperity, happiness and success. It gives us immense pleasure and happiness to announce that HEARDS is ranked as the top-ranked organisation for 2017 by GlobalGiving.  In celebration of HEARDS hard work GlobalGiving has created badges for us.

HEARDS is getting your valuable support which is inevitable for us towards the continuation and success of the project.  Your support towards the maintenance of the vehicle made a big impact on under privileged children education.  Over the past year, we have seen children from far off communities enrolling in the classes to access a better education. The children’s learning has improved. This is possible solely because of the support given by you towards the maintenance of the vehicle.  Your donations are so helpful.

Your contributions have also provided much needed transportation for kids and social support.    Your generosity has given these young boys and girls the opportunity to also attend our rehabilitation centre by providing them with non-formal education and easy based learning methodology because of the inevitable support towards the transportation of these kids.  

Your help has gone a long way!  Thank you so much. These children and their families are so grateful!  I request the donors please kindly forward the message towards supporting this project to your friends and family.  The support towards transportation for kids is very essential and which will definitely built a great future for these most downtrodden children.

Thanking you,

With warm regards,

Kuriyakose Sajan

Hello Dear Friends and esteemed Donors,

Seasonal Greetings to you from HEARDS – India!

I am extremely delighted and pleased to submit this report.  Many families in Chittoor is getting migrated from another parts of the State due to unemployment.  Among these migrated families they work as daily laborers in construction industries, brick kilns, gravel industry, small cigar making industries, poultry industry, granite industry and other jobs.  Most of these parent kids works as non-technical laborers and most of these industries are located out of town and due to this all these families stay in the outskirts of the town by building small huts in the Government lands.  As the rehabilitation centre is located in the heart of the town we desperately need to bring the children who are scattered from different parts of the town.  Due to this transportation of kids is an essential component towards the success of the project. 

In order to shuttle these children to and from the home we are facing a great difficulty towards the maintenance of the vehicle.  On an average there will be around 40 kids are coming from the outskirts of the town.  Our rehabilitation centre is the only place all these kids will get meaningful education, a place to love, play and enjoy their childhood.  If we leave them without caring they will end up working in hazardous and non-hazardous industries.  They will certainly lost their childhood ending up with punishments from the clutches of employers. 

The other challenge is that the distances of the van ride every day because we need to understand the fuel costs are increasing day by day in India.  This cost will be only for a short period of time because once the children as well as parents understand the importance of education and the children educational standard getting increased and able to cope up with regular school going children then we will mainstream them into the nearby Government schools.  The period will be normally from 6 months to one year.  During this period we fervently request you to kindly support these downtrodden children transportation cost in order to regain their lost childhood.

We thank you as always for your valuable donations and hope to continue to support us.
