#120 New Year Eve celebrations at Jivodaya and Sai Sahara

#120

When the beings of 21st century plans to be part of the materialistic society by finding a way to compete with themselves on a new year eve, Helping Brainz planned to give back to the society by celebrating the last few hours of 2019 with the needys of Jivodaya Ashralayam (67 sisters) and Sai Sahara Old Age Home (17 grandmas and grandpas) as we feel that the best way to find ourselves is to lose ourselves into the happiness of the needy.

Indeed the those special moments of happiness, for those who live their lives in darkness, cannot be materialistically evaluated, however needs to be felt by being a reason of their moment and existence.

Our visits included grocery donations, cake cutting and distribution of sweets and happiness. People who donated stuffs and Volunteered were, Anushree Menon, Geeta Sundaram, Sonya Gehlot, Vivek Vaid, Harshit Gupta, Sunil Kumar, Maj.Jiji Rajeev, Anuj Gupta, Dinesh Wadhwa, Aakash Sunil, Kirti Tikyani and Yedhu Krishna Menon.

We are obliged to the management of Jivodaya Ashralayam and Sai Sahara Old Age Home for giving the volunteers of Helping Brainz this opportunity. Visits like this gives us an opportunity to spread love and affection among ourselves and within near and dears, hence to cut down the people in old age homes and destitute homes; since old age shall happen to everyone.

Old Age Home from Delhi Supports Kerala Floods

#MatterOfInspiration
#KeralaFloods

From the day our team started working for Kerala Flood Victims there have been numerous stories to inspire many of our young Helping Brainz mates. The story of Sai Sahara Old Age Home, Rajendra Place, Delhi was one among them.

The day we decided to send materials to Kerala, we shared socialmedia broadcasts and news about the same to all our friends, colleagues, connected-corporates and organizational partners. It was then Dr.Rajeshwari, the founder of Sai Sahara Old Age Home called us and agreed to donate 50KGs of Rice, Sugar and Pulses to the Victims. These were the donations the 17 grandmas and grandpas received for their livelihood however they had the opinion that “let the needy get these items, they are in need of these items more than us”.

Helping Brainz ElderlyCare Projects Team is working with Sai Sahara Old Age Home for the past few years. We humbly salute Dr.Rajeshwari Ma’am and all grandmas and grandpas for their divine love towards humanity.

#StraightFromTheHeart


The concept of OLD AGE Homes still gives us a question mark, thinking about the subtle mental condition of a son or a daughter which makes them think of sending their parents (who made them make their first step) to an orphaned state at an Old Age Home. Today’s technological revolution is making more and more old age and shelter homes to come up, because in this money making materialistic world we are forgetting the value of love, being loved and giving it back to the needy.

On behalf of Shraddh or Shraddha (a ritual wherein we honour our great grandparents and beloved) we visited Sai Sahara Old Age Home at Todapur, Rajendra Place and made the grandpas and grandmas stretch their wrinkles, smile at least for a short while. The event was conceptualized and sponsored by Mr.Rajesh Arora (Good Enough NGO) and Orchestrated by Meenakshi Paswan (Old Age Home Projects Leader, HelpingBrainz) and Dr.Shweta Yadav (Volunteer, HelpingBrainz).

It’s better to serve, honour, help and at least love them when their alive rather than calling a function to remember them.

You’re soon going to be in their shoes

A day with the destitute, the abandoned and the age old

Today, as we unfolded one more chapter of our precious life; we understood that we / as well as our so called problems are nothing infront of those who live in silence between the concrete walls of Jivodaya Ashralaya (or Jeevodaya Ashralaya). They had a life, which was torn into bits by someone/ or some phenomenon, and in the process of the collating back the bits, they lost their race. Today they are abandoned, and they too live happily by crying, screaming, talking and dreaming about their undefined lives with the Godly nuns (Sisters) of the Jivodaya Ashralaya. Though their smiles which appeared in gloomy faces, after seeing us, made our eyes wet; we stood stubborn infront of the undefined truth of the life.

Visit by REborn Riders to Sai Sahara Old Age Home : Event Facilitated by HelpingBrainz.Org

“Hope and future”, writes the Pope, “presuppose memory. The memory of the elderly gives us the support we need to continue on our path. The future of society … is rooted in the elderly and the young: the latter because they have the strength and youth to carry history forward, and the former because they are the source of living memory. A population that does not take care of the elderly and of children and the young has no future, because it abuses both its memory and its promise”. – Pope Francis

Mother’s day with Grandmas and Grandpas of “Home for the Aged

“Let us never know what old age is. Let us know the happiness time brings, not count the years”- Ausonius

It was 4 in the evening when we landed there, and our sole aim was just to make the wrinkles stretched and make them happy for the time we are there. An old home is a place, which leaves us clueless about the cruel mankind, who can even think of caging their Ma and Pa after a certain stage. I was touched by the warmth they transferred to us which comprised of a grandma’s and grandpa’s affection.

“Old age is the most unexpected of all things that happen to a man” – Leon Trotsky. If this is a phenomenon which every individual goes through, then why they enroll their parents in an old age home, how can one even think about the same? The love they grandmas and grandpas have, god, to be honest made me in tears.

IMG-20150510-WA0043

Let’s take a pledge that we won’t cage our parents to an old age home, common they are our parents, the one who made us walk, learn, dream, think – then how come ? The world is 360 degree round.
– “She was the richest woman of Delhi, and now she is with us at our old age home as a resident” – mentioned the SPOC over there. Well is it called life ?
– “The son even takes away the fruits and cash from the mother, after visiting her every Sunday” – What will you call this ?

Helping Brainz on May 10th Sunday, on the occasion of Mother’s day planned of spending the second half of the day with the mothers who were denied their motherly hood or caged by their kids. We visited an old home in Fatehpur Beri, Chattarpur on Sunday evening and spent few hours making them smile wholeheartedly, Helping Brainz team member and few volunteers played ‘antakshiri’, distributed juices, and fruits and spend time gossiping with the grandpas and grandmas of the old age home.
Gitanshu Khurana from Helping Brainz, is the man behind this idea. 🙂
