(Completed - 2020) There are many old age homes in India which require various necessities to support the elderly that they often cannot receive.
We raised $550 dollars that was sent to India to be donated to 3 different old age homes. Because some elderly cannot afford to join old age homes in the rural areas of India, extra funds will be donated to those who need assistance being admitted into these homes.
This home has been in operation for seven years. It's family operated and houses 45 elders (20 of whom are bed-ridden). We raised enough money for an air conditioner (15,000 rupees) and a water heater (6,000 rupees),around $300 total.
Rajeshwari Old Age Home
This old age home has been in operation for more than eight years. It is family operated and houses 55 elders (15 of whom are bed-ridden). We raised money for a large cold and hot water filter (15,000 rupees) which totals to around $200.
Sruna Priya Old Age Home:
This old age home has been in operation for nine years. It is family operated, and they work hard to keep the conditions clean and maintained. We raised enough money for a water filter (4,000 rupees) which totals to around $50.
