🏡 Building a Home for Our Beloved Elders: Help Us Construct Mangal Van, an Old Age Home in India 🙏
About Mangal Van: An old age home
The elderly population in India is one of the fastest-growing in the world. India's elderly population is about 11 Crores and 30% of them live alone. This figure is projected to grow to 17.3 crore by 2026. As per a survey, for most Indian senior citizens the biggest concerns prevailing are healthcare costs, lack of financial support, and seclusion. Due to the negligence of their children and loved ones, they are forced to live an isolated life without proper safety and security. Even most of them are struggling with basic needs food, cloth, and shelter. While the life of old age is supposed to be spent in peace, this purpose is not satisfied most of the time. While some elders are at least supported monetarily by their children, others rely on their retirement savings/pensions, while the least fortunate are penniless and abandoned. In either of the above cases, they are subsequently left alone to survive in the most vulnerable stage of their lives. Some of them are in the very worst conditions in unsupervised, abusive, and neglected environments. All they seek is stress-free and peaceful old-age living.
We come to you today with a heartfelt plea to join us in an endeavor that holds immeasurable significance—building Mangal Van, an old age home that will provide love, care, and solace to our beloved elders in India. In a society that often forgets the wisdom and experiences of our senior citizens, it is our duty to honor and cherish them. These remarkable individuals have dedicated their lives to shaping our communities and nurturing future generations. Now, it's our turn to ensure that they live their golden years with dignity, compassion, and a sense of belonging. At the Youthisthan Foundation, we have witnessed firsthand the struggles faced by many elderly individuals who find themselves alone, without familial support or a place to call home. Our vision for Mangal Van is to create a haven—a sanctuary where our elders can find warmth, care, and a loving community to call their own. However, we cannot achieve this vision alone. We humbly appeal to your generous hearts to contribute towards the construction of Mangal Van. Your support will help us create a safe and nurturing environment where our elders can thrive physically, emotionally, and socially. By donating to this noble cause, you are not merely giving funds; you are providing hope, love, and a place of belonging to those who have dedicated their lives to shaping our world. Your contribution will help us provide comfortable living spaces, healthcare facilities, recreational activities, and holistic support services that cater to the unique needs of our elderly residents. Imagine the smiles that will light up their faces as they enter Mangal Van—a place filled with love, compassion, and companionship. Your donation will not only create physical infrastructure; it will create a space where cherished memories will be made, laughter will resound, and stories of a lifetime will be shared. Together, let's build Mangal Van—an old age home that embodies our gratitude, respect, and commitment to our elders. Let's ensure that they live the remaining chapters of their lives in an environment filled with love, care, and the warmth of a family they truly deserve. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to making this dream a reality. We kindly request you to donate generously and share this message with your friends, family, and colleagues. Together, we can make a profound difference in the lives of our elders and leave a legacy of compassion and empathy. Join us in this journey of love and support.
