Swayam



Swayam is a group that promotes self-reliance, education and employment opportunities for homeless children who have taken to living on the streets.

Swayam routinely networks with other social work organizations that have a similar agenda. In particular, they work with “Siragu” a school that focuses exclusively on homeless street children.
In the event of natural calamities, Swayam joins rescue groups to offer first aid, basic needs, medical camps etc to those affected.

Being aware of the importance of preserving nature, Swayam is maintaining 1000 saplings that it has planted in the campus of a hospital facility in Tambaram, Chennai.

Swayam has formed groups like Deeksha, Rakshat, Siragu and Shiny in order to help the homeless regain confidence, learn self reliance and life skills, and have an opportunity for a normal, fulfilling life.
