Support Gyandeep for Empowering the Underprivileged Girls

Posted on August 25, 2024 by Vishwa Jagriti Mission

Support VJM for Empowering the Underprivileged

In the heart of Faridabad, Vishwa Jagriti Mission (VJM) is running two institutions.

Both are working tirelessly to uplift underprivileged children, girls, and women through education and skill development.

They are running under the names of Gyandeep Vidyalaya and Anand Dham Kaushal Vikas Kendra.

Both institutions represent hope, opportunity, and a brighter future for those who need it the most.

Your support can make a world of difference in the lives of these children and women striving for a better tomorrow.

Gyandeep Vidyalaya: A Hope for the Needy Children Since 2000

Gyandeep Vidyalaya was established in the year 2000 with a singular mission: to provide free, quality education to children from underprivileged backgrounds.

The school has grown over the years, and today, it teaches more than 1,100 girls and 300 boys.

These students come from some of the most marginalized sections of society, including ragpickers and daily wage labourers, whose families often struggle to make ends meet.

The school offers classes from nursery to the 8th grade, ensuring that these young minds receive a good educational foundation.

Not an ordinary school

Gyandeep Vidyalaya is not an ordinary school.

Understanding the financial constraints of their families, the school provides free uniforms, stationery, books, and bags.

The importance of nutrition in a child’s development is not overlooked.

Nutritious and hygienic mid-day meals are provided to every student, ensuring they are well-fed and able to focus on their studies.

These meals also motivate parents to send their children to school regularly.

This caring approach to education has transformed the lives of many students.

But the journey is far from over, and the school needs your help to continue its mission.

Donations can help sustain and expand these crucial programs, ensuring that more children have access to education, regardless of their background.

Anand Dham Kaushal Vikas Kendra: From Education to Employment

Complementing the efforts of Gyandeep Vidyalaya is the Kaushal Vikas Kendra.

The initiative was started in 2021 under the motto “Shiksha se Rojgar Tak” (From Education to Employment).

The center focuses on skill development for women, helping them become self-reliant and financially independent.

The center has already witnessed more than 400 women pass out, with a current strength of 50 trainees.

Kaushal Vikas Kendra offers courses in three sectors: beauty and wellness, computers and IT, and apparel.

These courses are certified by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), adding significant value to the training.

The center is proud to provide these courses free of cost, making them accessible to women from the most disadvantaged sections of society.

A centre with Top-Notch facilities

The facilities at Kaushal Vikas Kendra are top-notch.

All trainees are provided with free training equipment and kits, ensuring they have everything they need to excel in their chosen fields.

Upon completion of their training, they receive certificates, scholarships, and job placements, helping them secure employment and gain financial independence.

The impact of Kaushal Vikas Kendra on these women’s lives is remarkable.

Many of them have gone on to acquire jobs or start their own small businesses, achieving self-reliance and contributing to their families’ incomes.

This empowerment is not just about financial stability; it is about giving women the confidence and skills to shape their destinies.

However, like Gyandeep Vidyalaya, Kaushal Vikas Kendra also relies heavily on donations to continue its operations.

Your contributions can help more women gain access to these life-changing opportunities, enabling them to break free from the cycle of poverty and build a better future for themselves and their families.

Only You Can Help

Both Gyandeep Vidyalaya and Kaushal Vikas Kendra are doing extraordinary work, but they cannot do it alone.

They need the support of compassionate individuals like you.

By donating to these institutions, you are not just giving money; you are giving hope, education, and a future to children and women who would otherwise be deprived of these basic rights.

Your donation can help Gyandeep Vidyalaya provide more resources, expand its facilities, and reach even more children in need.

It can help Kaushal Vikas Kendra offer additional courses, improve its training facilities, and support more women in their journey toward self-reliance.

Imagine the difference your contribution can make—a girl child who becomes the first in her family to attend school, a woman who gains the skills to secure a job and support her family, or a society that begins to thrive because of the opportunities you helped create.

Come forward and support Gyandeep Vidyalaya and Kaushal Vikas Kendra

Any small contribution matters!

So, come forward and support VJM to sustain its efforts.

Together, we can build a future where education and empowerment are accessible to all, regardless of their background.

Your generosity can change lives.

The best things to donate | vishwa Jagriti Mission

Posted on August 2, 2021 by Vishwa Jagriti Mission

The best things to donate

Every season is a wonderful season of giving if you have a kind heart. We should give not just to our loved ones, but to the needy as well who we don’t know, who we’ll never see. When you give something to the underprivileged and marginalized people, they keep you in their prayers that always benefits you.

Moreover, for donating you don’t need to be a rich philanthropist. Anyone can donate if he or she has a kind heart. It’s an amazing feeling that gives rise to a sense of satisfaction.

And in case you are thinking about what all you can give to make the needy happy, there are many articles you can donate other than food, clothing, and money.

All you need to do is a little research in order to find the right social service organization that will accept what you want to give.

Medicines

You can donate medicines that are not of your use. They can heal someone and even give life. For example, if you have recently recovered from COVID-19 and have surplus useful medicines at home, support initiatives that seek medicines.

Many volunteer-run organizations collect medicines in their city. Know about them and donate.

Shoes, Socks & Bags

Shoes and bags are also nice items to donate. This will benefit many people—especially school-going poor children. And instead of throwing your old socks in the garbage bin, just wash them and donate them to some orphanage. They are yet another crucial item that many people can use. And if you have school backpacks or old luggage, they can also be donated.

Kitchen Utensils

Another nice thing to give to the needy is various utensils including plates, bowls, teaspoons, tablespoons, pans, serving trays, and pots.

Many social service organizations runs free food donation drives and some even run kitchens for poor people, you can donate utensils to them to ease their work.

So, if you’re thinking about getting some new utensils, donate your old ones first!

Games & Toys

Toys and games are also great items to donate. For example, there are many poor children in our country who don’t even know about puzzle games.

If you have some at your home, donate them so that poor children also understand how to use imagination for passing time in a creative way.

You can donate your old toys to children’s hospitals, orphanages, and daycare centers.

Hygiene products

Never forget how important donating hygiene items are. They are incredibly important to different shelters, old-age homes, schools for poor children, and orphanages. If you have some such products that you don’t use but which are still fresh, donate them.

Shampoo, Deodorant, Toothpaste and toothbrush, sanitary pads, soaps, Band-Aids, and Diapers are some of the nice items worth donating.

Old Furniture, Yes, why not!

If you have small coffee tables, old beds, benches, dining tables, rocking chairs, and things like and they are in good condition, give them to some old age home, orphanages or schools.

Once you go through your home and figure out what exactly you can donate, turn to GreenDrop for your donation pick-up or drop-off services. We partner with charities such as the Red Cross, Purple Heart, the National Federation of the Blind, and the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. We will turn tour donations into monetary donations that will greatly aid these charities. Donate now!

Why People Donate Time & Money | Vishwa Jagriti Mission

Posted on July 21, 2021 by Vishwa Jagriti Mission

Why People Donate Time & Money

Many of us might be living in a healthy family, but this is a sad truth, we cannot say that we are living in a healthy society. Why? Since our society is a mixture of ‘Haves and Have Nots’.

And it would be difficult to imagine a healthy society without those who at least intend to improve its condition through their generosity. And that’s why the power of giving and donation finds mention in the works of great people, leaders, and thinkers.

Further, many people give back to society due to personal reasons. Here are some of the reasons why people love their generosity and donate their time, money and also, sentiments.

A Sense of Overall Happiness

If you are involved in charitable causes believe that you are helping many social service organizations. They make a big difference to the lives of the poor, hungry, and the needy.

There are various studies showing people who donate to charity find themselves having an overall improved sense of happiness and satisfaction. Even a meager amount makes a big impact.

Vishwa Jagriti Mission runs various cost-efficient social programs for helping the marginalized. And many people enthusiastically take part in them to feel happy.

Further, this is a harsh truth that while our country is seeing rising incomes and a better lifestyle, that has been matched with growing income inequality and helplessness, especially amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In such times, the generosity of kind-hearted souls enables deprived people to feel a sense of hope and security.

This is also one of the key reasons why millions of people donate a small amount from their income regularly to support causes they believe in.

A Sense of Moral duty

Giving to charity also boosts personal values. It is believed that a feeling of social conscience is also one of the top reasons to donate money, material or time to any charitable organization.

Every year, hundreds of volunteers join Vishwa Jagriti Mission with a feeling to serve the poor and sick individuals. When asked, why they want to volunteer, about 60% cite ‘moral duty’ as a reason. They feel it’s their duty to use what they have to help and support others.

This sentiment is very much rooted in their personal values. It helps those who are marginalized, who cannot afford a simple meal for their family, and who are suffering due to lack of medical attention and medicines.

These volunteers act on a powerful feeling of responsibility and feel like they are living in a way that is true to their own beliefs which is beneficial for society as well.

A Sense of Good Parenting

Yes, this is also a great reason for many to donate. Through their humble efforts, many parents introduce their children to the importance of generosity for living a good life. Sharing the feeling of charity with kids shows innocent souls from a young age how they can make positive changes in their surroundings through small acts of kindness.

Also, it is in the nature of children to help others. Taking part in charitable causes nurtures their innate generosity and they grow up with a greater appreciation of what they have while having a better perspective of social realities.

That’s why many families have created a ‘Social Cause Box’ in their homes- like a Piggy Bank. In it all family members contribute including children. This is how these parents are inculcating the virtue of generosity in their children, which turns them into responsible adults eventually.

A Sense of Spreading Love

Right now, a large part of our society is becoming a victim of materialism. A majority of people are involved in fulfilling their own desires. They don’t care about others. They want to have good food, luxurious life, and personal well-being only. This is unfair. Man is a social animal and so it’s his duty to give it back to society.

A lot of people are craving love right now. It is an emotion that society severely lacks nowadays. And so many people take part in charitable causes to prove that love for mankind, love for others still exists. By taking care of others, they show that humanity is still present.

Every day, many good souls give a visit to Vishwa Jagriti Mission’s Old Age Homes. They donate their time and say they want to do it just for spreading love and make our older generations feel that they are not alone in their fight.

They also say, one day we will also grow old and we would expect our younger generations to give us a visit if we start living in an Old Age Home.

So, different people have different reasons to donate their time, money, and sentiments.

What’s yours?

They Need our Love, Care & Support | Balkalyan Yojana, Vishwa Jagriti Mission

Posted on January 6, 2021 by Vishwa Jagriti Mission

They Need our Love, Care & Support

The notion of family and the presence of love in it are wonderful gifts from God. Love brings hope with it and it gives the courage to deal with challenges in life. And a family plays a powerful role in the overall growth of a child. But what about those children who have to live without any family?

These children are at risk since they have lost one or both parents to violence, sickness, age, or some other tragic incidence. Their future depends only on their willpower and survival instinct. In a few cases, orphaned kids find support from shelter homes, but a majority of them end up living on the streets and facing unimaginable tragedies. These children need our love, care, and support. Can we do something for them? Is adoption the only way?

In fact, there could be many ways to provide these kids with support (other than adoption).

You May Sponsor, Volunteer and Donate Your Time

Adoption is certainly not the only way to help vulnerable children; sponsorship is also one of the ways. Families can sponsor orphans making it possible for them to receive clothing, food, medical care, education, and other essential amenities.

Moreover, many social service organizations are working in India for this purpose. Search for volunteer opportunities with them. You can help them by giving professional advice regarding outreach activities, donation events, or by donating your time for some administrative work in their offices. Many child care institutions do not have a sufficient number of caregivers. You may work for them with VJM Balkalyan Yojana.

Protect Kids From Harm or Teach Them

Children are meant to be at school and not on the streets. Ensure that their rights are respected in your area and they don’t get involved in child labor. You can empower the marginalized kids through workshops so that they can raise their voice against harassment and abuse.

You can also help children acquire understanding about their learning skills because it is true that even the most marginalized girls and boys can learn if provided with the opportunity. You may help them reach organizations that provide early and basic education for street children.

Offer Monetary Help, If You Can

Social service organizations are often in need of money to carry out different welfare programs for such children. You can donate one-time money or offer donations on a yearly basis. You may also direct your money to a particular area of need, such as food, medical care or education. Look out for charities helping orphans in India, you will get many, but be cautious.

When donating directly to institutions stay alert and verify astutely how your donation will be used. Trustworthy organizations take good care of children and hold their orphanages accountable. Donate to one of such institutions for the real impact.

Ask Your Friends and Relatives to Involve in Caring Activities

There is no problem if you are unable to save money for donations. There are still other ways you can bring a difference to the life of needy children. Talk to your family, friends, and colleagues, and tell them that you want to help orphans. You may motivate them to take part in initiatives for helping them. Any meager help through you can change the life of a helpless child.

Vishwa Jagriti Mission and Care for Kids

Vishwa Jagriti Mission (VJM), under the guidance of HH Sudhanshuji Maharaj and Dr. Archika Didi, has adopted many vulnerable kids as they are the ‘Children of God’ (Devdoot).

It is our supreme duty to share whatever we have in the form of food, education, and clothing and let them live a simple yet good life.

VJM is running a public school in Jharkhand’s violence-prone region, Khunti to teach tribal children whose lives have been devastated due to conflicts. Many children are getting prepared here to lead a decent life through a good education.

In Surat (Gujarat) and Kanpur (Uttar Pradesh), VJM runs ‘Devdoot Bal Ashram’ to ensure comfort and care for vulnerable kids. Here, they get free food, housing, and education. Now children from this Ashram are excelling in the fields of education and sports. This proves the importance of ‘support’ in the life of marginalized children.

Furthermore, in Faridabad, VJM’s Gyandeep School is teaching underprivileged children, many of whom were collecting garbage earlier. They get education, food, and housing for free here.

Final Thoughts

Remember, children living without any family are actually hanging by a thin thread and need small support to become a good citizen. If you can, offer your love, care, and support for such children. Support organizations that are working for them, teach such children, or motivate fellow men to offer help to them. They are ‘Children of God’ and they deserve a civilized life.
