Our activity and initiatives in the year gone by, focused on :-

.  Taking medical services and facilities to the deprived.
.  Community health and hygiene programmes to the targeted communities.
.  Organising 'Health-Care Camps' in the rural areas as also in the urban slums.
.  Improving and extending the reach of our primary educational and vocational t raining     programmes     through the NLM SANSKAR KENDRA SCHOOLS .
.  Stress was laid on expanding NOIDA PUBLIC LIBRARY by way of both, additional books on     current     technical and educational  needs of the readers as    also, to increase the readership,     membership, services     available.
.  Activity at the only shavdahgrah 'ANTIM NIWAS' in the area of Noida and Greater Noida was    stepped up    with area development activities, additional    facilities and making it 'sensitive' to    the needs of users    keeping in view the solemnity,sadness and sorrow of the moment.
.  Full facility for people from the economically weaker segments with availability of fully FREE    wood and     services for completion of the final rites .

Our volunteers spread their wings and helped develop awareness in regard to the tremendous reach and capability of 'WORKING TOGETHER' within the community, disregarding all man-made barriers and perceptions. This has helped considerably, to achieve an 'enduring' relationship.

Geographic Location

The existing educational facilities and delivery of services in the primary health care sector and education relates to the district of Gautambudh Nagar covering 5-6 villages, rural areas and urban slums of Noida, Greater Noida going as far Dadri.

This would indicate reaching-out to a population of around 300,000 individuals from the economically weaker segments (ews). It covers densely populated areas, which include a migratory population of road and construction workers, plumbers, electricians, technocrats and other blue collared workers.

Socio-Economic Status of the Area:

The lowest order of the population from the rural areas or, the urban slums often comprising tenants and the like, form the bulk of our beneficiaries. The usually illiterate, semi illiterate individuals are unable to meet the financial needs necessary to sustain the health and educational needs of the family. Because of these disadvantages they are unable to access any of the existing health and/or educational facilities and services.
