By the grace of God, almost all Social activities initiated by the Trust duringthe last 14 years are widely accepted and appreciated by the general public. Indeed, we are obliged to the magnanimity of the like minded people for who, whole heartedly had supported our different projects.
 From the inception of the Trust, we desired to start a rehabilitation centre. We had in our mind, a different concept about such a centre. It should not be a mere shelter for the weak and destitute, but a man making centre concentrating on the overall development of the inmates, cultivating in them confidence and optimism. For the realization of such a glorious dream, we started the orphanage “Gokulam Bala Bhavan” in the year 2005.

There are several auspicious occasions in your family. It can be a birthday, a house warming ceremony, marriage anniversary or it can be the wedding ceremony of your son or daughter. We also observe the death anniversary of our beloved ones with rites and feasts. When you spend huge amounts for such rituals and celebrations, be kind enough to spare a small part of the expenses for the upkeep ofGokulam Bala Bhavan.Consider them as the neglected poor members of your family and show charity to them.

The service rendered is free to the poor families who are incapable to meet the charges of private operators. The new Ambulance was flagged off by Mr.Pradeep Chowdary, Co-Chairman, SBI-SBT, on 27th May 2013.

Palliative care unit:

The TRUST is embarking upon a new mission…The life style diseases and fatal diseases like Cancer are on the rise among all sections of the society. More than anything else destitute and people who are terminally ill need a healing touch. Government machinery has introduced Pain and Palliative care units at Municipal and Panchayath levels.
But they find it difficult to cope with the ever increasing number of patients. It is this felt need that have prompted us to launch a pain and palliative care unit. We intent to avail off the service of trained Nurses to arrange home care units and offer palliative treatment to those who are terminally ill and to those who can not afford hospitalisation.

Women empowerment & Health awareness

Deena Daya Social Development society:

Self Help Groups (SHG) are the catalyst in the community development. Deen Daya Social Development Society is the federating agency of the Self Help Groups. Aim of the trust is to form a women self cooperative society. More than 1000 women with the motive of working together have joined the self help groups.
 Societies are jointly undertaking income generation programmes and at present there are around 22 SHGs running successfully. Micro Credit Programmes are the added attraction of these societies. Society is in the forefront of the development activities in association with the government departments of the region.
Environment friendly Eco bags for eliminating plastic, is the flag ship project of the SHG’s which was launched in association with the Thodupuzha Municipality, Merchants Association, and the Lions Club of Thodupuzha..This project is running healthy with the co operation of the general public.

Health Awareness Programmes & Services :

Trust is also concentrating more on health communications. A series of medical camps and health awareness programmes have been conducted to the community in the yester years. Camps were organized in the interior villages to focus more on the services to the scheduled castes and tribes.

Medical Camps:

In order to ensure a Cataract Free Society, in association with the eye hospitals, Trust organises medical camps for the early detection of diseases and provides free treatment. General medical camps are conducted every year in rural villages with limited transportation, Medical and Education facilities.

Social commitments

Adopt a Granny Programme:

One of the sincere efforts of the Trust is the financial assistance offered to the poor elders from the Thodupuzha locality.
We started this charity programme at the time of the inception of the trust. The financial assistance offered to the elders helps them to meet their medicinal and survival needs. In the form of pension, Trust is providing a pension package for the identified elders and cancer patients.

Marriage Assistances:

Trust, from the time since inception is offering marriage assistance. Usually brides from poor families are provided financial assistance under this section. Mangalya Nidhi the brand name itself propagates the concept. Usually financially sound parents of newlyweds offers donations to the Trust and through this fund Trust is providing assistance to the poor girls.

Deena Daya Poverty relief programmes:

Trust is offering food to the poor on special occasions. At times of mass gathering in Thodupuzha due to religious or other purpose, society
provides free food for them. Some families in the vicinity of Thodupuzha with none to take care is been
 offered free provision supply.
With all these above initiatives, implementing of welfare programmes and services for women in need and distress, differently abled and mentally challenged persons, women and children, destitute, orphans and neglected street children, and provides social security for the aged and destitute through a network of organizations, residential institutions and non-institutional schemes Trust is moving to its 2nd phase of completion of the proposed building at Kolani Site.

Academic Support:Educational Support:

We support all the educational needs of our children. Once we accept a child into our Trust, their fees, books, stationery items, school bags, school uniforms including shoes and socks are borne by us. Children can study according to their skills, whatever field they want and we support them till they are gainfully employed.

Building independent study skills is another important aspect of our educational programmes. In some cases we have noticed that the children find it difficult to cope with mainstream curriculum. They end up failing in class exams thus leading to a further lowering of self-esteem and problem behaviour. Hence, we are providing constant support to these children. They get special coaching in their talents and we hope to get them suitable jobs that focus on these trained talents.

Career Development Programmes:

Trust in association with institutions such as Nehru Yuva Kendra has organised various career development programmes to the youth in the region. National integration programmes are offered once in a year.
Non-profit day-care – CRECHES:
The day care industry is a continuum from personal parental care to large, regulated institutions.Considerable research accumulated showing that not-for-profits are much more likely to produce the high quality environments in which children thrive. The Trust is planning to initiate for crèches.

DDST- Deen Daya Seva Trust is entrusted for the Formal Education & Informal Education of the children as a part of their new phase enhancement.
STREET CHILDREN PROJECT:

DE-ADDICTION-CUM-REHABILITATION CENTRE:
As we all know the fact that the consumption of drugs is increasing day by day in our society and in order to evacuate this habit of consumption we are planning to bring out some orientation activities in the society.
The mission of the organisation is the rehabilitation of addicts through counselling, treatment on indoor basis, follow up services, family counselling, and providing vocation training becoming themselves reliant and lead the life peacefully with a status in the society.
The organisation also aims to make the total de-addiction of the addicts by solving their personal family problems in a view that the de-addict should not turn to addiction.
Orientation of centre’s activities:
• Explaining the activities of the centre to the clients and families so that they know the facilities and limitation of the services available in the centre.

Old age homes are meant for aged, physically and mentally retarded and infirm senior citizens who are unable to stay with their families or are destitute. Apart from food, shelter and medical amenities, old age homes also provide meditation & yoga classes to senior citizens.
 Old age homes also provide access to telephones and other forms of communication so that residents may keep in touch with their loved ones. Some old age homes have day care centers. These centers only take care of senior citizens during the day. For older people who have nowhere to go and no one to support them, old age homes provide a safe haven.

The Genesis….

Established by a set of philanthropists in the year 2000, Deena Daya Seva Trust (DDST) is now in the 13th year of service to the rural community in and around Idukki District. Trust is committed to deliver handholding support to the poorest of the region through various programmes. We provide various social, educational, and vocational programmes for the poor to empower them and to lead a dignified life independently. The Trust aims to cut across man made barriers, to transcend the differences of gender, country, caste, creed and colour.
It is our objective to reach out to as many people we can, to make whatever humane difference possible, to assist them to lead their lives with dignity and purpose. It is in the midst of a world increasingly driven by self-interest, that we intend to carve out an oasis of peace and tranquillity, where people would be encouraged to give up their selfish motives to pursue the realization of the love innate in every human being. Hence our greater accent on the development of the inner world is an appreciation of one’s authentic inner beauty which in turn can radiate and reflect on the outside, rendering the world around us much more beautiful too.
