Jiv Daya Foundation
Jiv Daya Foundation, in collaboration with Manthan Yuva Sansthan, is dedicated to addressing the critical needs of marginalized communities in the Kisko Block, Lohardaga. These initiatives focus on improving the nutritional status of children and ensuring food security for backward-class families. The Foundation’s commitment to holistic development is realized through the implementation of the Milk Project and the Rahat Project, both of which are designed to bring immediate relief and long-term sustainability to rural populations.
Milk Distribution Project
The Milk Project is designed to combat malnutrition among children in rural and backward communities of the Kisko Block (Nini Village, Kasiyadih Village, Salaiya Village, Kharia Village, and Uldag Village). In areas where access to nutritious food is limited, children often suffer from developmental issues related to poor diet. The Milk Project provides these children with daily servings of milk and biscuits, ensuring they receive essential nutrients that contribute to their growth and well-being.
The main objective of this project is :
- To improve the nutritional intake of rural and backward-class children by providing Milk, and Biscuits to Anganwadi children aged 0–5 years on Daily Basis.
- To reduce the instances of malnutrition among children by offering consistent and balanced supplements.
- To support the physical and cognitive development of children in these underserved communities.
Curricular Activities:
- Boiling fresh milk, maintaining proper hygiene standards, and carefully serving it along with biscuits to the children.
- Distributing essential items such as uniforms, bags, study materials, and other necessary supplies to support education and well-being.
Rahat Distribution Project
The Rahat Project is a food security initiative aimed at supporting economically vulnerable families in the Kisko Block (Nini Village, Kasiyadih Village, and Salaiya Village). Many families in this region, particularly those with children enrolled in Anganbadi, struggle to meet their daily food requirements due to economic hardships. The project provides essential ration supplies to these families, helping alleviate hunger and ensure access to basic sustenance.
The main objective of this project is :
- To provide ration and food supplies to marginalized and economically backward families of Anganwadi children.
- To address food insecurity by ensuring families have consistent access to basic nutritional necessities.
