Overall socio-economic development of the underprivileged communities, especially children and women.

Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) came into existence as a result of the motivation and personal initiative of its founder, Mr. Ramesh Kasondra, to enhance the socio-economic status of the underprivileged people. Hailing from a rural family, the founder was no stranger to hardships faced by the underprivileged. Having overcome economic and social challenges, due to the backing and economic blessings from certain elder society leaders, the founder set out to do his best to make a positive difference in the lives of fellow underprivileged.

Working with a team of committed people, GVT’s aim has been to secure integrated development through people’s participation. The key areas identified for interventions include child rights, education, health and hygiene, sustainable livelihood, and women empowerment. Our efforts have developed lasting association with government, non-government and corporate organizations as also with the communities and groups with whom we have worked.

We have come a long way following a small beginning in June 2001, and have implemented a wide variety of projects related to child rights for change, reproductive child health care, quality education, watershed development, wasteland development, tribal development, low cost sanitation, alternate energy sources, self-help groups, vocational training to youth, and women empowerment in Bharuch and Narmada Districts of Gujarat state in India.

Seniors

Gender inequalities in education are greatest in the poorest countries amongst the poorest wealth quintiles, and widen during adolescence. Adolescent girls face specific challenges to staying in school and learning. In many contexts, as girls approach puberty, their opportunities can shrink compared to those of their brothers’, underpinned by harmful gender norms which may impose restrictions on their mobility. Girls and young women also face a disproportionate burden of domestic work, and face greater risk of violence, including sexual violence

Gram Vikas Trust’s Girls’ Education Programme started in 2009, aiming to support over a hundred of the poorest girls to improve their lives through education. The GVT supports initiatives which aim to find better ways of getting girls into school and ensuring they receive a quality of education to transform their future. This initiative will support interventions for highly marginalized, adolescent girls who are out of school (either because they have never attended school, or have already dropped out of school without gaining a basic education) to (re-) enroll in education, gain employment or improve the quality of their family lives. In order to achieve this interventions should be focused on the acquisition of basic education and skills, tackling social and gender norms, and testing sustainable solutions that can provide systemic change.

Give The Girl Child – A Second Chance To Be In School

The world in grappling with the Coronavirus outbreak. The impact of the pandemic is severe universally however, the worst affected are the poor older persons. Older people are at maximum risk of COVID-19 since they have more chronic ailments than younger people and their ageing immune system makes it harder to fight diseases, infections and viruses. Recoveries are usually slower and more complicated.
In India 80% of the people who died due to COVID-19 were above 65 years of age. More than 17% of people affected by the deadly virus are senior citizens above the age of 60 years.
We need to have an integrated strategy to support the abandoned and deprived elderly, who are often seen as the ‘last’ and the “lost” during disaster relief and rehabilitation efforts. Gram Vikas Trust, Bharuch recognizes the need to reach out to this group of vulnerable elderly population and make sure they survive and thrive.

Studies show over 70% of senior citizens in India face abuse - verbal, physical, emotional and financial. They also live with deteriorating health conditions they cannot afford to treat. Support to elderly ensures they are not alone, sick and hungry. ₹1,000/month provides one elder in need with rations, toiletries, nutritional supplements and essential medicines. If required, it may also include accommodation expenses.

Help in making life easier for rural women
Channiben Vasava is a resident of Dumalpur village. She is 38 years of age and is a married woman with three daughters. The economy of the family is earned from daily wages. She was aware about Asani sanitary napkins only after attending the Menstrual Hygiene Management awareness program organised by a field officer of Gram Vikas Trust. She says, “Attending the MHM awareness program has helped me to understand the importance of menstrual health and how a woman can take care of herself by small steps of hygiene”. According to the field officer she has also trained her three daughters on using pads after seeing the demo in MHM awareness. She says that she feels very comfortable in using pads and she is now confident that her daughters will also be safe and healthy by using pads instead of clothes.

Asani continues to help women and girls like her to learn about menstrual hygiene and the health benefits of using safe sanitary napkins.
