"SNEHACHAL” – Love, Care, Celebration.
Snehachal is a home dedicated solely towards providing residence to children considering the various conditions the children have been affected by the organization has adopted them like its own kids.

Shelter home is the most recent and highly enthusiastic project initiated by Naya Sawera, which can shelter up to 25 kids. A lot of kids run away or forced out from their home because of violence or abuse, others have sadly been separated from their parents or are exploited as child laborers. They typically come to our contact through legal establishments. When possible, and in the best interests of the child, they will be re-joined to their family, otherwise, they will be allowed to make Snehachal their home.

Snehachal provides love, shelter, security, nutrition and medical care. They learn social values and get emotional support through counseling. They are also introduced to some basic skill development processes. Resident staff lives and work at Snehachal where they give the kids the focused care and attention that every growing child need.

The members and volunteers alike not only teach the children some basic essential skills like communication, vocabulary and drawing etc but also spend time with them. This is aimed towards celebrating the lifespan they have been given. The Children feel comfortable and cared at Snehachal. The monetary donations contribute towards their educational, nutritional and medical needs. Most important of these donations is the contribution of love and affection that equips them with a certain degree of psychological happiness and content. Field trips, picnics and volunteer visits work towards keeping their life exciting and keep them from feeling isolated due to their different abilities. It is also an effort to reintegrate them into the society and abolish the stigma that has been formed against differently abled children by spreading awareness.

Naya Sawera is also supporting a care home for Special Kids run by PWNR. Currently, we are supporting 25 kids in this project for their Education, Nutrition and Medical needs. We also supporting HIV Positive Infected & Affected ladies to make them self-dependent and providing educational support to their children.

Kokh is a campaign that adopts pregnant woman from some underdeveloped families in rural regions of India to enable them to give healthy birth and also use the acquired knowledge to take better care of their new born kids. The acquired funds and monetary donations are used to provide medicines and healthcare facilities to underprivileged pregnant women.

They are taken for regular health checkups and their delivery is also taken care of. Rural areas in India have the tradition of unskilled old women facilitating the birth of children. Awareness is spread regarding the possible harmful consequences of this and thus their treatment at a medical facility is funded. There is also a lot of speculation associated with the way the kids are to be treated right after birth.

Thus, Kokh takes care of the adopted woman and the child, and their health and nutrition needs for at least a month after delivery. Apart from such contributions, Kokh also spreads awareness among those who can afford maternal healthcare but are not aware of it. It also provides such information to women who do not know how to manage their nutritional needs during pregnancy.

Every Thursday, the organisation keeps a meeting with the adopted women and during each meeting, they are provided with something healthy and nutritious like coconut water or fruit juice. Also, 5 random women are picked and are taken for a wholesome lunch that is funded by the organisation.

Apart from taking care of nutritional needs and delivery, the campaign Kokh also takes care of their blood tests, blood donation needs, and also their vaccinations. All in all, any medical, health and nutrition need during the 9 months of pregnancy and 1 month after delivery is taken care of.

This campaign has been successful in providing these services to around 500 women in need so far, and the maternal mortality rate in adopted regions has significantly gone down.

Menstruation is the only blood that is not born from violence. Yet, it is the one that disgusts you the most.” Women in most regions of India have been confined behind closed doors, outside of the kitchen; with their period blood and cotton cloths.

Sanitary napkin have become an unaffordable luxury for most Indian women due to their expensive nature, and a lack of willingness amongst their families to openly declare the woman’s period by buying products related to it.

Days of Pride is a campaign that aims to use collected funds to donate sanitary napkins to women in rural regions of India, and to spread awareness regarding menstrual health and abolishing associated taboos. One packet of sanitary napkin costs Rs. 20. The donors can donate as many packets as they want by donating in multiples of 20. Sufficient donations will ensure that women have access to a hygiene way of managing their period.

The spread awareness regarding menstruation and sanitary napkins will guard the woman from any existing stigma against menstrual blood. Under this campaign, 75000 sanitary napkins have already been donated. The organisation also has 5 sanitary napkin banks from where women in need can avail napkins whenever they wish to. Bringing the topic of menstruation out in the open through sanitary pads helps the women in being able to express themselves and live normally even during their periods.

Days of Pride, tries to help women embrace their menstrual cycle as it is the facilitator of birth and regeneration, and is something to be proud of.
