Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION PROJECTS: OUR NATIONAL LEADERS DID THEIR BEST TO PROVIDE RELIEF FOR COMMUNITIES AFFECTED BY THE PANDEMIC. WE CAME UP WITH A PLAN TO GIVE OUT 1000 POULTRY CHICKS THAT FAMILIES COULD REAR FOR EGGS AND MEAT. THE ACH CONSTRUCTION IS GOING WELL AS WE BEGAN PHASE 2 OF THE PROJECT. MORE THAN 400 CHILDREN ARE ENROLLED IN THE K THROUGH 7 CLASSES. 2,250 CARE PACKAGES WERE GIVEN TO FAMILIES SUFFERING FROM THE EFFECT OF COVID-19. THE PACKAGES CONTAINED GROCERY, LENTILS, OIL, AND OTHER ITEMS. 820 MEDICINE KITS WERE DISTRIBUTED TO THOSE AFFECTED BY COVID. TWO CLEAN WATER WELLS WERE DRILLED IN IMPOVERISHED VILLAGES. ONE MOTORCYCLE WAS GIVEN TO A NATINOAL LEADER. 300 RELIEF PACKETS WERE GIVEN TO VICTIMS OF CYCLE "YAAS" IN WEST BENGAL. WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR ALL OUR GENEROUS DONORS FOR HELPING THE PEOPLE IN NEED AROUND THE WORLD.
GIVING CHILDREN HOPE (GCH): OUR GCH PROGRAM IS THE FLAGSHIP WORK OF AIM. THE GOAL OF GCH IS TO HELP CHILDREN IN DEVELOPING NATIONS TO DREAM BIGGER AND BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY. THERE ARE MORE THAN 821 CHILDREN IN OUR PROGRAM IN INDIA, NEPAL, TANZANIA, ECUADOR, THAILAND, AND PHILIPPINES. MOST POOR CHILDREN IN DEVELOPING NATIONS DROP OUT OF 8TH GRADE AND WORK ODD JOBS TO PROVIDE FOR THEIR FAMILY. WE ENCOURAGE FAMILIES TO THINK LONG TERM AS THEY FACE INCREDIBLE HARDSHIPS EVERY DAY. STAYING IN SCHOOL AND GETTING EDUCATED IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE MEANS TO HAVE A BETTER FUTURE. MANY OF THEM RECEIVE FREE TUTORIALS, SCHOOL UNIFORMS, BOOKS, SHOES, NUTRITIOUS MEALS, AND TOILETRIES FOR PERSONAL HYGIENE. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE PANDEMIC SHUT DOWN IN INDIA AND NEPAL, SCHOOLS WERE CLOSED FOR NEARLY TWO YEARS, AND POOR CHILDREN WERE THE MOST AFFECTED. OUR CAREGIVERS TRIED THEIR BEST TO ENGAGE THE STUDENTS. WE CONTINUED TO SUPPORT THE CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES WITH GROCERY AND OTHER ESSENTIALS AS MOST OF THEM ARE DAY LABORERS AND LOST THEIR LIVELIHOOD.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND TRAINING: TRAVEL TO POVERTY STRICKEN COMMUNITIES TO ENGAGE IN OUTREACH AND TO TRAIN NATIONAL LEADERS, TO IMPACT THEIR COMMUNITIES THROUGH TEACHING AND CARING FOR THE POOR CHILDREN AND WIDOWS. THESE COMMUNITY LEADERS NEED ENCOURAGEMENT AND TRAINING SO THEY CAN EFFECTIVELY SERVE COMMUNITIES THAT FACE INCREDIBLE ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL CHALLENGES. NONETHELESS, DUE TO THE PANDEMIC AND THE SECOND SURGE OF COVID IN INDIA AND NEPAL, WE COULD NOT HOST TRAINING. WE DID ALL OUR TRAINING THROUGH ZOOM VIDEO. AND OUR LEADERS WERE ENGAGED IN PROVIDING COVID RELIEF AND HOT MEALS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. IN ADDITION, WE HAD FLOOD RELIEF WORK IN PLACES AFFECTED BY CYCLONE AND FLOODING.
