BLESS

BLESS Since 1989 BLESS has been working for social transformation through village empowerment activities. We are a family who runs a family NGO.

Today we host a Children's Home for around 60 orphan or unprotected children, and we maintain our daily work in many different social development projects. BLESS was created 27 years ago, reaching thousands of people in many different programs throughout the years. Today we live in a small farm, close to Pondicherry, where is also located the BLESS Children's Home, which was created to shelter and

educate around 60 orphan and unprotected children from the surrounding villages. More than that, we created several programs to develop and empower the poor communities, including water/sanitation programs, health medical camps, microcredit for women's and low caste's empowerment and different forms of disaster help. Here everybody shares local home-made meals, the ex*****on of the NGO's projects and the children's day-by-day living, all in the typical Tamil Nadu's way.

Pongal is a beautiful celebration of gratitude, honoring the sun, the soil, and the hands that bring food to our homes.
It reminds us of the deep bond between nature and humanity, and the joy of sharing abundance with loved ones.
May this harvest festival fill our lives with warmth, harmony, and new beginnings🌾✨

“Our Nutrition Camp at TS Pettai brought the community together to learn simple, healthy habits for a stronger future. We shared practical tips on balanced meals, protein-rich foods, and everyday nutrition for families. The session encouraged children, women, and elders to choose healthier options within their local resources. With guidance and awareness, TS Pettai takes a positive step toward better health and wellbeing. Together, we grow stronger, one nutritious choice at a time.

FAMILY BENEFIT FUND....
To improve family bonding and as well as have a financial strengthening as a whole family, this orientation was held for all the 6 villages. The Resource Person Dr. A.J. Christopher, Retired Social Work Professor/ Principal efficiently brought up the details of this Family Benefit Fund since it was introduced by him within his family that started with 6 members in
2015 and consists of more than 100 members at present. Loans can be availed by family members above the age of 18 for educational, business and any personal reasons. These savings and revolving loan models among the family members benefited the family members in time of need and the repayments in the appropriate time had made this model
sustainable and successful. As an effort to make the community members in our project villages aware of this model
and strengthen the families in the community since strong families is where the better community arises. The Resource person made the participants realise the difference between needs/ requirements that a person wants to survive in life and desires/ wishes that
a person wants to have a better life.
Even though there are earnings in families, it does not contribute to savings and when in time of need or emergency, families are forced to take loans/ debts from external money lenders whereas they fall into the cycle of poverty and unrelieved ever since. Instead of
taking money from other people and repaying interest for the benefit of others, the family benefit fund has provided a platform to lend money and repay within the family which has paved a way for stronger bond and unity in the family. This model has brought the family members together. Building trust in the family is one of the main objectives of this model.
At the same time, there are risks in handling money and trust plays a major role in that. The Resource person concluded the orientation by motivating the participants to improve in educational qualifications and encouraging the students to go to higher studies so that a
model like Family Benefit Fund can be created in each village within the families.
