Grains of Gratitude: Supporting Aging Domestic Workers

Summary

In the slums of Chennai, around 500 elderly domestic workers are facing immense hardship and urgently need essential ration supplies to survive. These women, primarily from areas like Perumbakkam, Chemmencherry, Kannagi Nagar, and Padappai, have spent their lives working as domestic helpers. Now, due to old age and health issues, they struggle to find work. Many are widows, abandoned by their children, and unable to afford even two meals a day. Despite years of service, they lack the financial security and resources for a dignified retirement.

INDIAdonates, in collaboration with its on-ground partner, Tamil Nadu Domestic Workers Welfare Trust (TNDWWT), is dedicated to making a difference in their lives. Their goal is to provide monthly Grain Kits to ensure these women have enough food to sustain themselves every day. Each Grain Kit has essential ration supplies that will last them for a month.
