Mamta Sadan Renovation

Project Detail

“Home of Kindness” Honouring these special women

THE LADIES HAVE RETURNED WITH JOY TO THEIR NEWLY RENOVATED HOME

IMG_0723In India, women with mental illness can experience ridicule and  ostracism. Their fates are often cruel – they may be abandoned by family members to fend for themselves or locked away in understaffed state-run institutions where they are stripped of their basic rights and human dignity. Without a home and supportive community, they are extremely vulnerable to exploitation and abuse.

The Mamta Sadan (Home of Kindness) offers shelter, food, security and medical care – but more than this Mamta Sadan provides a place where the women can belong and be loved. The women of Mamta Sadan are encouraged to participIMG_1106ate in the daily activities of Mukti and be contributing members of the community.

The Mamta Sadan renovation is complete – new roof, new bathroom facilities, plastering and painting, the tatty flyscreens and doors have been replaced, a complete facelift. NZ also purchased 20 new beds. This smiling lady is Kamal, enjoying her new bed.
