Deep within Odisha State, amidst tribes and marginalised communities, Gram Vikas is a beacon of hope, championing the cause for clean water. The regions, overlooked for years, are witnessing a transformation as Gram Vikas seeds development, ensuring every household taps into a healthier future. The installation of a water tap goes beyond quenching thirst; it's about quenching the desire for a future unmarred by diseases like cholera.
Each participating village is meticulously selected, embodying a spirit of unity and collective endeavour. The inhabitants contribute materially and physically, weaving a tapestry of communal upliftment. The formation of a General Body in every village marks the inception of a self-sustaining model, where responsibility and autonomy are the cornerstones.
Once the water infrastructure is established, it’s the community that takes the helm, ensuring the impact is enduring and the waves of change are continual.
Use our editor to write a message for your loved one.
We’ll print your message on the inside of the greetings card so your gift is ready to be given.
Then we’ll call up our favourite postie to hand deliver your impact to your loved one.
Our model’s a little different - we work with impact partners on the ground to keep things transparent and effective. These partners are local community organisations and small charities who can get your impact action done in the most efficient way. And rest easy knowing these partners are thoroughly vetted each year to make sure your impact is truly making a difference.
Now for the best part: seeing your impact in action! About 6-12 months after you send your impact, we’ll pop you (and your recipient if you’ve given us their email) an update. This could include text, images, and videos showing how your thoughtful impact has helped transform lives. Who knew giving could feel so good?
