Qurbani 2011

October 2, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment 

qurbani-ad-for-websiteAlhamdulillah, we come upon another year to assist needy Muslims and minorities in India. Each year, rural villages across several states in India look forward in having IMRC visit. They know that when IMRC is there, they can look forward to a wonderful Eid.

Each year your generous donations provide needy Muslims Eid outfits and meat packages. Families can celebrate Eid with new clothes and a delicious meal.

IMRC’s Qurbani program assists those wishing to perform Qurbani and at the same time benefit needy Muslims in India. Our sister organization of 30 years is onsite in India ensuring that donations are delivered efficiently and on time.

Our 2010 program was held across 103 distribution centers. 2,000 Qurbani were performed with the meat distributed to over 12,000 families, benefitting 60,000 people! Alhamdulillah!

Thank you for your generosity and continued support. We hope you can support again!


Floods Hit North India

flood-victim

Floods are an annual occurrence in northeastern India during the monsoon season from June to September. This year they have struck again overtaking many areas of North India in which schools, homes, madrasas and entire villages have been clearly wiped away. Highly populated states such as Bihar, U.P, Orissa, Assam and West Bengal have been hit.

This time the flood has affected 18 districts including Patna, Muzaffarpur, Darbhanga, Madhubani, Sitamarhi, Katihar, Nalanda, West Champaran, Khagaria, Sheikhpura, Purnia, Saran, Begusarai, Bhagalpur, Supaul, Saharsa, Madhepura and Araria. With such devastation comes the spread of epidemics such as cholera and other water-borne diseases.

It’s been approximated that over three million people in about 1000 villages are left homeless. The people in these flood stricken areas need immediate relief assistance and rehabilitation. In the past, IMRC has provided relief kits including food packets, water, clothing, medicine and temporary housing.

IMRC’s team is onsite working round the clock to provide as much help as possible, but cannot continue without your support.

We urge all of you to please assist IMRC in providing relief for these flood victims.

Help a flood victim today with your generous tax-deductible donation and keep them in your prayers!

Rural Educational & Economic Development: Update

March 9, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

reedlogo
Introduction
Appalled by the acute poverty, illiteracy and inequality in the coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh, IMRC took the initiative in setting up a platform – REED (Rural Educational and Economic Development) – to fight these evils. The twin focus of REED is Educational and Economic development. For educational development, REED is concentrating on setting up basic multipurpose ‘one teacher schools’ in remote villages. To promote economic development, REED is planning to start a micro finance project.

Education
‘One teacher schools’ in underdeveloped villages of coastal Andhra. These schools would serve a multipurpose role as centres for secular and spiritual education as well as social activity. Four school buildings are almost completed, while three more are expected to be ready soon. We have earmarked two more sites and expect to begin construction there soon.

In addition to the school building and appointed teacher, villagers could also benefit from access to a basic library. We are setting up libraries in the one teacher schools, and as of now have established them in 5 villages.

We have also appointed 18 teachers in these and other villages where schools were built but were defunct due to lack of a teacher. We provide training to these teachers before they take charge of the village schools. All teachers attend the monthly training camp where they undergo refresher courses, and also provide a monthly report of their activities, so that we can monitor the progress. Working very hard to educate the villagers about the importance of education and the need for teachers. As a result, many villagers are now convinced about the need for them to participate in contributing to teacher salaries. We expect the locals in some villages to contribute one-third of teacher salaries. More important than their monetary contribution will be the resulting sense of involvement of the local villagers in these projects.

Micro-Finance
We are in the process of conducting detailed surveys to identify the demographics, occupations, unemployment, incomes, savings, educational levels, availability of credit, market forces, etc. Once the survey is completed, we will study and analyze this data to plan effective projects that can provide economic development of the region and its people. At the same time, we are looking at government schemes and the experiences of other NGOs and micro finance institutions, in order to formulate effective and efficient schemes for micro finance and economic development.
