What we give, is forever our own - George Granville
Want to help?
Right from the inception of NCF, numerous donors have showered us with their generosity. The donations have been in the form of money as well as volunteering. Several organizations also offer their contribution in the form of workshops, physiotherapy sessions etc. Without this support, we are certain NCF would not have seen the light of this day.
We accept monetary contributions in any denomination. We have 80G registration and qualify for the contributions made under the CSR regulations under the Company Act.
Currently, about 170 residents are staying in the Homes. Our current plans for both the Homes would require donations approximately of Rs 2.50 crores. Even a small contribution from you would go a long way. Join us in achieving our objectives!
The utilization of the donations will be towards the following :
- The maintenance of the premises : The campus being almost 3 decades old encounters constant wear and tear which need to be attended
- Amenities : We are developing a Recreation Area for our elderly residents at our Vishram Dham campus and contributions can help set up exercise equipment within our campus for the elderly
- Skill-building : We recognize that as India’s population ages, skills need to be developed for taking care of this geriatric population. We are in discussions with TISS (www.tiss.edu) to run a skill building program for geriatric care within our premises. Graduates of this program will be able to take care of elderly people and will be employable as aayaas, wardboys. Your contributions will help us subsidize the course fees for the needy students
- Conservation : Currently, the bathing water is heated by solar heaters – our installed capacity is 15,000 liters. In May 2016, we commissioned a 20KW solar plant on our rooftop for electricity generation. Depending on donations, we intend to augment the capacity to 2-3 times. We also intend to set up a waste water treatment plant to conserve water and use the treated gray water for watering our plantations
There are several ways in which you could contribute to this cause. Some of these are listed below:
