sponsor a child program development program information program

Bharat-Aid is actively involved in various types of projects that help the needy. The help is reached to orphan kids, kids having parents but cannot support them and the youth who have the willingness to do challenging thing but lack of financial support.

Our aims are :

# To help abandoned and poor children and youth
# That the help should make them independent and that the help should develop the society.
# To increase understanding among the rich for the undeveloped countries and for the needy children
# To increase interest for solidarity for the third world
# To raise interest for India, it's people and culture

Bharat India-Aid is working in 3 fields :

* Sponsored children's program
* Development program
* Information program

Development Program

Bharat India-Aid has developed a good co-operation between Forum-Syd, an umbrella organization for many small charity organizations. To Forum-Syd we apply for financial support for different development projects. Forum-Syd process the applications while Sida (Swedish International Development Authorities) takes the final decision. Our strength is that we have had a long co-operation with our partners in India and that we support only concrete projects which will raise the quality of life’s for the orphan children but also make them less dependent on foreign aid.

Here are some examples of projects Bharat India-Aid has supported with help of Forum-Syd and Sida:

# To build and run a vocational school, Birdsnest Home.
# To build and run an old age home, Birdsnest Home.
# To build and equip a flourmill to generate income for Birdsnest Home.
# To build and run a tailoring and weaving center for young women, Russ Foundation.
# To plant trees, coconut trees, and run the plantation which   income will provide vocational
   education for “drop outs” from CCCHI, Munroe Island.
# To start and run a farming project for milk production which will provide milk for the children and also
   income to the home, Warn Baby Fold.
# To build and equip training and work center for 500 poor women at Trppaadam Service Center.
# To repair and build new houses for existing orphanages, Warn Baby Fold and Mar Thimotheus
   Memorial Orphanage.
# To build and run a college for poor young boys and girls, Bethel Computer College.

Information Program

Bharat India-Aid also has an aim to give information about India, its people and culture. Many members have visited our orphanages and projects and they are the best ambassadors for spreading information to others. Bharat India-Aid arranges and helps others to arrange gatherings for the public with different topics about India. We do encourage young people to visit India and also assist them if they want to work as an voluntary worker. We also assist students if they want to do some project work in their studies in various fields.

Bharat India-Aid has produced a screen exhibition called “India not only poverty and holy cows” (Only in Swedish Version). The exhibition you can borrow from us free of cost.
