Society for Poor People Development

SPPD has been involved in child and women empowerment activities since its inception in the year 1995. The children belonging to the project villages of Tiruchirappalli and Pudukkottai districts mostly are the kids of daily wagers and other unorganized sectors like hawkers and road side vendors. There has been a spurt in social evils such as child labour and child marriages in some parts of the working areas of SPPD due to the pandemic situation. And as these negative fallouts of the pandemic such as serious drop in livelihoods and massive inflationary trends have been seriously drying up the purchasing power of the underprivileged such as the rural communities here. The nutrition kits are distributed periodically every month to children whom suffer through the consequences of malnourishment and nutritional imbalance, this is issue is faced by a large population of children. In such circumstances these nutritious food kits have been going a long way in keeping the physical and mental health of the children.
