ET Orphanage Outreach Program

‘There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a happy and smiling child’ The Empower Tamizhagam team has been experiencing this joy from the kids of Sri Arunodhayam. We have been distributing healthy food and treats for more than 100 children as part of our Orphanage Outreach Program. We appreciate the great work done by Sri Arunodhayam during these times of distress. Sri Arunodayam is a home for mentally challenged children who have been abandoned by their families. ET has been providing food, essentials, and medical supplies to children and orphans across Tamil Nadu state, India. We extend our deepest gratitude to our generous donors including Ms. Reena Chhabra and Mr. Rajat Khurana. We invite you to join the cause. Livelihood efforts have a direct impact on the children’s prospects, health and development. #ETIndia #ETImpact #empowertamizhagam #ngo #ngos #charity #nonprofit #ngoindia #change #india #chennai #children #volunteer #orphanages #children #outreach #nonprofits #nonprofitsindia #donate #livelihood #instagood

Panruti: The Jackfruit Paradise

The smell of jackfruit wafts in the air as one drives through Panruti in Cuddalore district of Tamil Nadu, India. Panruti is home to the largest area under jackfruit cultivation in the State. It is also likely the only place in India where jackfruit is grown as a monocrop on over 800 hectares.  Geographical Indication (GI) tags are given for products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities that are unique to their place of origin. Panruti has been waiting for a GI tag for the delicious jackfruit, which would add value and build a global reputation for the product. Jackfruit export and processing is a major economic opportunity in this region. Many farmers, especially women, and small businesses depend on this fruit for their livelihood. Empower Tamizhagam (ET-Impact) has been working with local farmers and Farmer Groups to improve market access and cold chain facilities.  Visit Panruti for a gastronomical experience. #ETIndia #ETImpact #empowertamizhagam #InvestInRuralPeople #ngo #charity #nonprofit #ngoindia #change #chennai #india #volunteer #cuddalore #panruti #neyveli #nonprofits #GI #CSA #GeographicalIndication #EBD #farmer #agriculture #agriculturist #farming #SDG #SDG2 #Indianfarmer #farmlife #sustainableagriculture #agri #kisan #food #farmersmarket #agribusiness #coldstorage #IFRPI #FAO #FoodofFuture #WFP #foodsecurity
