Jeevan Jyoti Profile
- 1. Jeevan Jyoti "lighting up your life" People welfare society Manas Vihar, Indira Nagar, Lucknow- 226016 jeevan jyoti2007@outlook.com Organization Strength and Structure Jeevan Jyoti "People Welfare Society", Lucknow is a voluntary organization established in the year 2007 and registered under society registration act 21,1860 and working for urban areas of Lucknow and adjacent districts. Jeevan Jyoti especially works on women and youth empowerment, Institutional development at local level, human rights and livelihood. Jeevan Jyoti " People welfare society" is a national level development organisation directly benefitting over 400 children and 250 women every year, through 38 welfare projects on education, healthcare, livelihood and women empowerment, in more than 70 remote villages and slums across 2 states of India. Education is both the means as well as the end to a better life: the means because it empowers an individual to earn his/her livelihood and the end because it increases one's awareness on a range of issues from healthcare to appropriate social behaviour to understanding one's rights and in the process help him/her evolve as a better citizen. Doubtless, education is the most powerful catalyst for social transformation. But child education cannot be done in isolation. A child will go to school only if the family, particularly the mother, is assured of healthcare and empowered. Moreover, when an elder sibling is relevantly skilled to be employable and begins earning, the journey of empowerment continues beyond the present generation. Realizing this, Smile Jeevan Jyoti, beginning in the corridors of education, adopted a lifecycle approach of development, focusing its interventions on children, their families and the larger community. Jeevan Jyoti believes that unless members of the civil society are involved proactively in the process of development, sustainable change will not happen. Following this model of Civic Driven Change, Jeevan Jyoti sensitizes and engages the civil society, making it an active partner in all its welfare initiatives. Today, 8 million children in India are out of school surrounded by poverty, illness and despair; they are fighting a daily battle for their survival. Together, we can bring hope in their lives. Together, we can bring change and make it last. Economic empowerment, provide right information and to provide health services as considered to be essential elements of development programs. Central to all these has been the question of enlisting community participation, communication and management. Jeevan Jyoti had adopted the concept of Community Development in terms of Organizational , Social Mobilization, Continuing Education and Rural Development Management based on local needs, resources, capacity, skills and cultural milieu. 1
- 2. Future Helpage Program for senior citizens India is today home to 100 million senior citizens. The pity is that todays rapid urbanization has overtaken the traditional value-system of our people and shifted their socio-economic priorities. Sons and daughters and their children find no time for the senior citizens in their family. The elderly, who have provided their services and support to the society, feel unloved and neglected at this phase of their lives. Their deteriorating physical strength and other geriatric illnesses add to their difficulties. Their often poor financial condition, lack of affordable health care and the general neglect by society has propelled Jeevan Jyoti to step in and bring in elder welfare programs and advocate for elder friendly policies in coming months.
