Help For The Elderly

Drought conditions have driven the rural people into poverty. As a result they started migrating to cities leaving the elderly people at home. While working with rural people MTRDS found that elderly people were lost, deprived of love, affection, care and support of their family members. Therefore MTRDS conducted a survey on old age people to establish an amount that would be helpful. MTRDS provides Rs.100/- for each person to meet their needs. So far 250 elderly people have received support under the Help For The Elderly program.
