 
Giving something of a great value to a person in need can be gratifying. This opportunity is being given to hundreds of economically disadvantaged women through Mahasemam’s “Passing on the Goat Programme”. The program involves provision of goats to Mahasemam members.
Women who are selected to receive donated goats must agree to “Pass on” a second – generation goat kid to another member of Mahasemam. This recipient must also agree to pass on a goat kid, creating a self – sustaining program and giving each woman the opportunity to uplift a struggling neighbor.Over the past two years, 200 goats have born and “passed on” to new recipients.
As of now, Mahasemam donated around 700 goats under this scheme. Many Donors have come forward to contribute liberally for the program. Apart from the external Donors our S.M.I.L.E employees are also contributing substantial amount from their salary every month for this program. For this financial year 2008-2009, our employees contributed Rs.40,100 approximately. |
