Mothers self help groups are a very important part of the Nandri Support system. They are informal gatherings where our mothers come together to help each other address any problems they have in their lives, either financial or personal. While the name “self help” might imply a focus on the individual , our aim is with the help of the group to aid the mothers to solve their own problems.
Nandri offers its mothers a group ready to support each other and help them to overcome adversity. They speak of the sense of care they feel and an inner peace after attending one of the mothers help group sessions.
In the words of Sr Deepika “Our mothers come together with a burden but go home with a light heart.”
Nandri continues to educate and inform their families on the importance of getting vaccinated. The pandemic has caused an unprecedented challenge to the Public Health Service in India, as well as problems with food production and supply. Our families are gradually returning to a more normal life and the number of Covid cases in our villages is currently reducing. In order for this trend to continue, we need our families to get vaccinated.
Nandri organised a vaccine rally in Kolappalur Village, in order to provide vaccines to as many of our families as possible. Nandri worked with the Government of Tamil Nadu to organise and promote this very successful and important event.
