Working for the poor of Delhi
Nearly 4 million people live in slums in the city of Delhi, India. Conditions are appalling, with a lack of education and access to basic amenities causing inhabitants to get trapped in a life of poverty and deprivation. Asha provides support, education and healthcare for these people, giving them the motivation and abilities to make lasting changes to their lives.
Asha's training and support enables even those with no education to fight for their basic rights.
Asha's many healthcare initiatives have made a huge impact on the health and awareness of people living in the slums.
Slum residents can gain access to safe water, latrines and cleaner surroundings through collaboration with Asha.
Thank You Asha
I hadn't ever applied for a bank loan as I thought I would be turned down. Asha spoke to the banks and they agreed to give loans to people in this slum. Asha helped with the application form, and I've been able to buy the delivery vehicle that I used to rent. Our family is much better off now.
