Women Health Check-Up Camp – Madanpur Khadar

Calm mind brings inner strength and self-confidence, so that’s very important for good health. – #DalaiLama

Helping Brainz 6

“When will the doctors come again, since it was a relief to express them our problems, since even don’t have a good hospital in Madanpur Khadar” mentioned Lalita who is a home maker from the slums of Madanpur Khadar, whose husband works as a daily wage worker at the construction sites near Madanpur Khadar.
When Helping Brainz first landed in the slums of Madanpur Khadar, there were more than 10 social organizations which claims to have penetrated in the hearts of underpriviledged living there for the past 30 years, however the same area doesn’t have a government school, hospital/or a dispensary however got lot many NGOs who have given good publicity to their social work through the photographs they have taken at Madanpur Khadar, however to be very honest we haven’t seen any development there. We at Helping Brainz never claim that we are an NGO, however a group of friends who do community service, as it is a passion for more than 450+ volunteers which makes us Helping Brainz. We have conducted several child empowerment activities, educational counselings, women empowerment drives at Madanpur Khadar in the past 3 years to create atleast an iota amount of difference in the people.

Helping Brainz 1

For India to be still an underdeveloped nation, even after 60+ years of Independence, we feel women empowerment is still a common cause for this stagnancy. Where she’s safe, even people don’t bare a 4 year old. Is she ever taught on how to safeguard herself, are the culprit punished, no never. It’s a joke now. A girl in our country is educated for the sake of marriage, though this statement would create turmoils in many stomachs, this is an underlined fact. That being said, do we ever care about her ‘health’, since whenever we talk about the same, people say, “Oh, she can take care of herself, why should we bother all these”.

Helping Brainz 5

Oh! C’mon, she is a human being, she needs to be taken care. Empowerment starts when you have good health. If you good health, we’ll definitely have good thought process, which advances the pro-activeness, out of box thinking, end of the day this definitely helps in ‘empowerment’.

So, why we are facing a strong gap in the field of elementary education and educational counselling, or guiding our near ones towards the right path,why there isn’t a strong urge in the parents to send their children to a field which they are interested in.

ChaipeCharcha – Madanpur Khadar

<<ChaipeCharcha – Madanpur Khadar, 3/28/2015>>

“Behind every successful man, there is a strong, wise and hardworking woman” Really J?

What if the % of the above mentioned strong, wise and hardworking homo sapiens decrease, successful men’s % will ……..?

Huh!!

The present day human mentality against the noble and sincere, wrapped with shiny coverings (which is beautiful in appearance) however darkened at the core, would definitely decrease the development of the nation, since we won’t have women at all.

We don’t know how far we would be successful in this phenomenon of “re-programming the human mentality and empowering the women by making them understand their rights by imparting vibes of confidence”, we yesterday (3/28/2015) conducted “ChaipeCharcha” at Madanpur Khadar Village of South East Delhi. Madanpur Khadar is located at the banks of Kalindi River (or Yamuna), where we have a coterie of inhabitants or refugees from different parts of India. The population mainly consists of underpriviledged (BPL) families, where the women especially are home makers, and their husbands work as guards, drivers, fruit & vegetable vendors; however few (countable) children aim high to become designers, doctors, teachers and engineers, plus Airhostess 🙂

Women here are not educated beyond 8th standard (on an average) and are married at a very young age. However the present day mothers have a urge to make their girls educated however don’t have opportunities (or rather they don’t know about them, though it’s hard for them to get it). Organizations like EFRAH and HCLT Foundation are doing their best to create a change in this juncture.

11085706_789571584467007_996370254_o

On 28th March 2015, Helping Brainz in association with HCLT Foundations conducted “ChaipeCharcha” at EFRAH’s center in Madanpur Khadar area. Around 40+ women [60% homemakers (aged between 18-70) , 40% students (aged between 14-18)] were (a) educated and empowered about their rights, (b) enlightened about the opportunities (both educational and entrepreneurial). HelpingBrainz on May 2nd 2015 would  be conducting a Rural Educational Counselling Programme for the children and women, henceforth would be landing with numerous development initiatives (English Speaking, Educational Counselling, Health Check-Up camps, Entrepreneurship Programmes etc), which we would be implementing in the next 6 months. BHB Team-members Garima Kohli and Shubhangi Singhal educated the crowd about various health and hygiene standards, they also threw some light on woman’s  diet and nutrition. From Team Helping Brainz we had Neeraj Shukla(Project Manager, Women Safety and Empowerment Campaigns) and Pratik Raj Bishen – a new bee in our family (Project Leader, Women Safety and Empowerment Campaigns), Ragini Singh (the youngest Helping Brainz however the dangerous) and Kumar Madhuraj (Project Leaders, CCRIDI Team) and Yedhu (speaker) 🙂
