"Care for Elders"
Providing Shelter, Food, Medical and Mental Support to Abandoned Senior Citizens in Mumbai.
Description
Citizen Welfare Association is a non-profit organization that has been providing free-of-cost services to senior citizens for the past decade. The organization has an old age home where they provide shelter, food, medical aid, and welfare activities to around 70 senior citizens.
What does Citizen Welfare Association do: Citizen Welfare Association seeks to enhance the dignity of deprived senior citizens from society. The organization accepts elderly people who have been neglected by their families, relatives, and society.
Condition of Abandoned Senior Citizens in Mumbai with Research: According to a study by Help Age India, more than 50% of the elderly population in India face neglect and abuse. The situation is worse for those who are abandoned by their families and left to fend for themselves. This is a growing problem in Mumbai, where many senior citizens are living in poverty and isolation.
Why it is important to support them: Providing support to abandoned senior citizens is not only a humanitarian duty but also a moral obligation. These senior citizens have contributed to society their whole lives and deserve to spend their remaining years surrounded by love and respect. It is important to ensure that they have access to basic necessities, medical care, and emotional support.
