You can choose to donate towards any of the other areas in which we work, too. Alternatively, you may wish to let Asha use your gift wherever it is needed most. It could help to:
Provide trained staff to explain to people how they can open bank accounts or apply for loans
Support a women's group as they raise awareness in their community
Cover the cost of transport for a children's group so they can leave their slum and go on educational trips within the city
Supply a children's resource centre with books in English and Hindi
Provide a computer teacher for a slum resource centre
Give a community the support of Asha's staff in lobbying for a clean water supply or new toilet block
The possibilities are endless! It's easy to donate and change lives - can you help?
Since I’ve been involved with Asha I’ve learnt so much about health and how I can help my neighbours. I’ve also learnt to speak English, and I know how to use computers as well - I have a much better chance of getting a good job when I leave school.
