Sanitary Napkins for needy girls

Since August 2018 we ‘HARC’ Trust is conducting Menstrual Hygiene & awareness program in Rural area of Parbhani district & various orphanage of Maharashtra. During this campaign Menstrual Hygiene Expert Dr. Mrs. Asha Chandak has conducted 101 'Menstrual Period Management' workshops since January 3, 2019 till date. 6 of these workshops have been specially conducted at Jintur, Manawat, Pathari, Purna, Parbhani, Selu and given training to the female teachers of the taluka. So far in Parbhani, Hingoli, Washim and Beed districts more than 22 thousand adolescent girls from 230 Zilla Parishads and private aided schools have been counseled in 94 workshops.
Due to this Menstrual Hygiene Program awareness about Menstrual Hygiene has been comparatively increased among adolescent girls of rural area. This Program not only created awareness among adolescent Girls of rural area but also improved their Health during Menstrual cycle and made their periods more Happy. So by observing this scientific change through available resources & feedback we had decided to cover all the schools of rural area of Parbhani, Hingoli, Beed & Latur & Nanded Districts in Educational year 2023-24. We are going to distribute Sanitary napkin to 2000 poor, underprivileged and orphan adolescent girls. We are also going to conduct Free Menstrual Hygiene awareness program in all the schools of Parbhani district especially rural area.
As you all know that to conduct this awareness campaign at Large scale we are in need of better financial support for providing sanitary pad, Educational & awareness material, traveling expenses etc. So I sincerely request your contribution for it.

Mobile de-addiction for kids

At present, it is gradually taking the form of addiction among children and teenagers due to excessive use of mobile phones everywhere, be it in urban areas or rural areas. As a result of which the communication is lost and there is confusion, the physical, mental and intellectual development of the students is adversely affected. For that, reading books is the right option to develop reading culture among children by communicating on this topic. That is why Homeopathic Academy of Research and Charities organization is organizing brain storming sessions on 'Mobile Detox Therapy' from 1st August 2023 in all Zilla Parishad schools of Parbhani district to cultivate reading culture. So far 5 workshops have been organized in 4 talukas and dialogue sessions on 'Effects of mobile phones and efforts to cultivate reading culture' have been organized and more than 1000 books have been distributed to all these 5 schools approximately 200 books each.
While organizing this activity, we can conduct this workshop on a personal level, wherever such reading activities/book reading activities are conducted or in the library where children regularly carry books along with all the updated entries in the book transfer register, we can organize this workshop only in the same Zilla Parishad school. Through the guidance session of Shiva Aithal sir, we are giving 'Anandachi Vachan Peti' to the students and parents to cultivate the culture of reading along with the lesson of inculcating humane life values.
Happy Book Reading Box: This book box contains about 100 colorful books in large font, especially biographies of great men, biographies of Indian and world scientists, textbooks from National Book Trust, Pratham Books, Jyotsna Prakashan, Amol Prakashan, Manovikas Prakashan etc. Pledges, paripathas, biographies of scientists, collections of stories for children...Marathi, Hindi, English, books based on patriots etc. will be included.The books in this Anandachi Peti have been selected by the reading-loving team of 100 books that will appeal to children in terms of child psychology.
The cost of this happy reading box is expected to be at least 5 thousand rupees. You can celebrate your or your loved ones birthday in a way by visiting HARC Institute on the occasion of your loved ones birthday. When there is a workshop organized by HARC, if the donors wish to gift this box, then we will give the name of the donor and this 'joy box' will be gifted to the needy Zilla Parishad school.
In this academic year, Vachan Premi Zilla Parishad schools in the rural areas of Parbhani district are planning to organize about 25 'Mobile Addiction and Side Effects' workshops once a week till January 31 to cultivate reading culture and give 'Anandachi Vachan Peti' to them.
