WELFARE OF CHILDREN - CHILDREN HOUSE OF HOPE (CHH)
This is an ameliorative service being given to the children through C.O.F. This service is
named as the CHILDREN HOUSE OF HOPE (CHH). CHH is a free evening tuition centers
established in the villages and slums of India. Its main purpose is to provide the physical,
social, educational and moral needs of village and slum children through every possible
way.
The parents of the village and slum children are illiterate; they were not able to help their
children in their home works and studies. And they do not have awareness on the
importance of basic education; because of this they stop sending their children to School
and they send their children for coolie works, which they feel better for their children as it
adds an additional income to the financially suffering family. The volunteers/tutors from
these centers help the Children in their home works and studies. They also visit the parents
and give them awareness on the importance of the education. Because of the regular
follow-ups given, the school drop outs rate has come down and many parents send their
children to school willingly than before. We give the children nutrition enriched
food/snacks twice or thrice a week. We provide hygiene supplies to the children. As well
we conduct medical camp and partially we supported for medical support to the
children.We also provide notebooks, stationeries to the needy children. Our wish is to see
every underprivileged child from the villages and slums to go school in spite of their
families’ financial poverty.

Educational Assistance
We have an aim and service to develop the underprivileged children and youth to get a good future through education .Many of our children in this project is from Children house of hope and Arise and shine of widows projects, have no proper awareness and guidance about higher studies ,as well they have no enough financial help from their parents to continue their studies or skill trainings to find decent job. So that COF select such children from our center and gave proper guidance to continue their education after completing their schooling 10th and 12 th standard.
The elected students study fees will be provided fully or partially (30%,50% and 60%)from COF funds, we encourage students to study job oriented courses like Technical course ,Trade training, Engineering and other skill oriented training depend on the vision and talent of the children. Also we motivate their parents to contribute according to their ability as well we encourage students to do part-time jobs and earn to cover their
additional needs. This gives more confidants for the students once they complete their studies they could easily make up their life and they stand on their own feet.Through this project already few students are completed their studies by our support and they were settled with jobs in India as well abroad. As a token of gratitude few beneficiaries turn as contributors and extend their support to new children. Every year we elected new students and continue our support to get proper higher studies this enable a bright future for our youth from different projects of COF.

Old Aged Home ( OAH)
Old age home seeks to provide peace and joy by caring of the aged people in terms of their physical, spiritual and social needs; and the home will take care of their hardships, loneliness and fear in their aged days. We believe that in providing an environment of love, acceptance, security and a sense of belonging to the old, he or she is helped to experience life normally.
We accommodated 6 elderly people In our oldage home at 2015 -2016. Three woman and three men,they are Ms.Gnannammal-96 Years,Ms.Jaya Baby -73 years Mrs.panchami-63,Mr.Sam Daniel-75,Mr.SelvaRaj-78.Mr.veera Kumar-72 . Among them Ms Gannammal died on May-2015 , then Mr.Selva Raj died on October-2015 and then Mr.Sam died on November-2015. After that it is continuing with the remaining three then two more woman were accommodated there in 2017.
Woman Empowerment projects COF is committed to empower the women those who are destined to look after their family. Such women are being given some training such as tailoring training so that they could become a tailor and they could earn money and feed their family themselves. There were 15 woman was given tailoring training from Servaikaran Patti of Dindigul district , 7 woman were given training at Kanyakumari Dist and 13 woman were given training at Ramagundam of Andra.
House for Homeless A house is really essential for a family to sustain from the calamities as well as to overcome their life struggle.COF has constructed simple small 400 sq. feet houses for people who were living in the worst huts and tents; and not capable to repairing it or building a house their own. In 2015 we have selected poor widows from Oddissa.And we constructed 16 houses and 7 house were repaired. It was mainly done because most of these people’s house was damaged by heavy rainfall.
Multipurpose hall for social workers COF has constructed multipurpose halls for the poor pastor’s family. The requirement of a multi hall for pastor’s family in a village is very essential for him to conduct the church service on Sundays and to conduct CHH during the week and the Pastor’s family can reside in the same hall. The multi hall is designed in such a way that it can be utilized for any purposes. Mainly the multi hall was build at the village where our social workers are working and this house is benefitted to not only for the residence of the family it helps to conduct the free tuitions (CHH) for the needy children from the village as well it helps to conduct widows meetings, and more for the farmers ,we can use such halls for conduct seminars of COF.It will bring real fruit in the society and the money that is invested to build such a multi hall will have its worth. The no. of such constructed multi halls is 10. Social worker’s welfare COF is committed to develop the downtrodden pastors’ life style through working like a bridge to have fellowship with brother hood missions and organization by providing a monthly support for poor independent pastor’s family and their children’s education with a period of three years. We guide and teach them to have income generating programs by using this money like chicken farm, goat farm, if they have land we encourage them to cultivate, cow farm as well small scale business depend on the availability and talent of the Pastor. Within these three years’ time, they are practicing how to earn money and how to stand on their own feet to provide his family. In 2015 there were 14 pastors from Orrisa are in this projects and it really helps them a lot.

Farmer’s Empowerment through Eco-farming Practices and Agro-based Management
COF gives special concern for the improvement of agriculture and the development of small and marginal farmers, tenant farmers and landless coolies.“One report from
2008 claimed India's population is growing faster than its ability to produce rice and wheat.”1 The production ability of India is declining every year.Various lands related and agro-operational issues affect small and marginal farmers, tenant farmers and landless coolies. This includes size of the land, wages, water availability, soil management, suitable seed availability, procurement of produce, preparation for next crop and elimination of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.The farmers are not aware of the new techniques and the right crop cultivation which is suitable for their land.Also the farmers are not economically strong enough to have all these facilities to have a better cultivation. Considering all these major issues we have introduced a program called Farmer’s Empowerment through Eco-farming Practices and Agro-based Management for the massive development of the agriculture and cultivation; and also for the development of the life of the farmers. And we have seen great response/results through this program. At first we have organized the farmers into a small group in every selected village called Co-operatives.And the first six months COF staffs worked with them and training was given by the
Agriculture experts on water management,pests and disease, soil and agriculture, fertility, new planting techniques, marketing strategy, awareness about co-operatives benefits.Then after that the poor farmers were given financial assistant of Rs. 20,000/- as capital investments to use for the cultivation such as buy healthy seeds, tools and fertilizers whereas the required cost for these needs has been estimated as Rs.25,000/-. The beneficiary’s contribution was Rs. 5,000/-.Through that they have bought the necessary instruments, healthy seeds, fertilizers and natural manure. The outcome was great and the benefits are being experienced by the poor and marginal farmers. And then we found the farmers are struggling for water ,depending on rainy water is almost negative results moreover our beneficiaries are small land owners thy even struggle for drinking water also so that we have supported to dig bore wells for the farmers. In 2015 we have dig 20 borewell.Here we have attached the list of the beneficiaries. We were supported 80 percentages of its total expenses and the remaining 20 percentage was contributed by the beneficiaries.
