10.16.2008

HELPING HANDS ARE MIGHTIER THAN PRAYING LIPS:

So far few individuals, students etc in & around Dindigul, have taken steps for saving these lives

• Refrigerators have been donated to Anbagam to preserve medicines that are given to them.
• Some basic materials like plates, MILKPOWDER are being donated by the public & students to Anbagam. [Supply of milk powder periodically is not possible, but still they try to do it to their level best.]
• Grocery is also provided by some people occasionally
• Material & financial help is also done by some.
• [It is possible to fulfill the basic needs like providing food for all everyday if the mount collected is spent in a controlled manner. But still it’s impossible to fulfill all the basic needs. ]
• Anbagam solutes all those who helped & keep helping them for saving all these lives & bow for the mightier hands who come forward to help them.

PROBLEMS FACED BY ANBAGAM:

• ANBAGAM doesn’t have any permanent building of its own. It is being run at rented house which is too small to be occupied by these many lives.
• Two new born babies have to be fed up with milk powder. So it is necessary to buy 12 packs of LACTOGEN NO-1(for BABIES BELOW 6-MONTHS) per month to feed these babies.
• Still they make use of fire wood for cooking which is not that safe for there lives. But they could not find an economic way for fuel.
• The organization is running short of money to fulfill their basic needs which becomes so necessary & emergency at times.
