Dorcus House (Australia) Inc (AU, 94273644626) Browse events
YTD Raised: $0.00Kolkata: A place where many women and their children sleep, eat, wash and exist on the streets or in the slums. They have no hope but begging from passers by. Many have no education, no work possibilities and above all cannot afford education for their children, and so the cycle of poverty is perpetuated. They are all open to the vagaries of the weather, to abuse from others and generally to be ignored. Dorcus House is set up to give those women a chance. It is a place for education: literacy and numeracy. It is a place for job training: be it dressmaking, Indian crafts or micro business ventures. Women will be encouraged and helped to put their children into school. It is a place to access nutritional food and a place to get help for health and hygiene issues. "To take the women and children, who live on the streets or in the slums of Kolkata; Give them a hope and a future by offering them a safe place to receive an education, vocational training, medical help and food. A place where they can build a future for themselves and their children". Widow sponsorship is available at $200.00 per year or $20.00 per month. This will give each widow a food package of rice, potatoes, flour and lentils each month. We are setting up an education package for the teenage daughters of our widows to enable them to continue at school and maybe go on into a career. Basic education for some of our widows will also be offered to enable them to read, write and do basic maths. Because our ladies live in makeshift homes on Government land, there are times when their houses collapse due to wet season storms. Repairs need to be done from time to time. Donations to ‘building repairs’ would be helpful in keeping our ladies and their children safe and dry.

MS Australia - NSW/ACT (AU, 20000049669) Browse events
YTD Raised: $0.00Each working day five Australians are diagnosed with Multiple sclerosis (MS).

MS usually strikes people in the prime of their life – the average age of diagnosis is just 30 and 87% of these people are of working age. It affects three times as many women as men. The overall cause is still unknown and there is no known cure. MS Australia raises funds to help care for people living with MS and to continue the research to find a cure.
