Education
+
+ AD Life Trust is dedicated to
+ transforming the lives of vulnerable children, particularly those
+ born to sex workers.
+ Facing challenges such as higher infant mortality and difficulty
+ accessing education due to societal stigma, these children often
+ struggle for opportunities. The trust has supported 12 children through
+ bachelor's degrees, breaking the cycle of
+ adversity and instilling confidence in their dreams.
+
+
+
+ Addressing gender biases in education, AD Life Trust sponsored the
+ initial fees for a deserving young woman pursuing a Ph.D., exemplifying
+ its commitment to empowering individuals. The sponsored individual's
+ success story, securing a higher-paying job aligned with her research,
+ highlights the trust's philosophy of
+ enabling self-sufficiency.
+
+
+
+
+ In recognition of broader educational challenges in India, AD Life Trust
+ partnered with Veda Vedanta Gurukula
+ Mahavidyalaya, Guntur. Financial support preserves traditional
+ knowledge, Sanskrit language, and fosters higher education in Vedic
+ studies while integrating modern education. AD Life Trust remains
+ dedicated to
+ holistic education, preserving cultural heritage, and empowering
+ individuals for a brighter future
+
+
+
+
+
Health
+
+ Ensuring good health is pivotal for a
+ fulfilling life, yet India grapples with widespread health issues,
+ including malnutrition, infant, and maternal mortality. Despite
+ constitutional guarantees for free healthcare, over 70% of health
+ expenses are borne by individuals, creating a significant financial
+ burden.
+
+
+ Recognizing this challenge, AD Life has focused its efforts on
+ healthcare, particularly targeting tribal populations,
+ constituting 7.95% of India's total population. Working in Telangana, AD Life has provided essential health services
+ to 25,000 tribal individuals, collaborating
+ with local gram panchayats in 30 villages.
+ Medical camps facilitated access to general physicians, cardiologists,
+ pediatricians, and gynecologists, benefitting
+ 9,467 tribal members. Eye and dental camps
+ further addressed specific health needs.
+
+
+
+ Additionally,
+ AD Life prioritizes community well-being by
+ employing and training four counselors who have supported 350 families
+ in health-related matters, emphasizing government health services,
+ HIV/AIDS counseling, and nutrition. In response to the COVID-19
+ pandemic, AD Life extended its support by actively participating in
+ track and trace activities for four months.
+ We collected and compiled data for relevant national public health
+ authorities, showcasing a proactive approach to community health.
+
+
+ Further demonstrating our commitment, AD Life provided essential medical
+ assistance to those adversely affected by the pandemic-induced lockdown,
+ contributing to the overall welfare of the community.
+
+
+
+
+
Livelihoods
+
+ AD Life Trust is deeply committed to enhancing livelihoods through skill
+ development programs, with a focus on empowering suburban women. Over
+ 30 batches, comprising 10 women each, were trained in Akiveedu, West Godavari district, mastering skills such as tailoring,
+ embroidery, and handicraft making. Through its affiliated, AD Life
+ Projects Pvt. Ltd., AD Life Trust established a transformative
+ partnership with
+ Brandix India Apparel City, providing
+ training for women in garment manufacturing. This collaboration led to
+ successful placements in various apparel units, aligning with industry
+ needs. With a 3000 square feet training center, AD Life Trust has
+ supported the program with experienced
+ trainers, covering essential skills and holistic development.
+
+
+
+ In tandem, AD Life Trust
+ extended its impact in Vizag district,
+ collaborating with APSSDC to provide
+ training and placements in apparel, retailing, hospitality, and
+ logistics sectors. Over 60 women received training in sewing skills,
+ with the provision of sewing machines for
+ sustainability.
+
+
+ The organization's commitment to social impact is further evidenced
+ through its collaboration with
+ Save the Children/CWS, implementing the
+ Refugees Project in Urban Hyderabad. Despite pandemic challenges, the
+ team successfully executed trainings, formed production groups, and
+ facilitated the sale of market-ready products.
+
+
+ External evaluations underscore the project's success, with positive
+ outcomes for Persons of Concern (PoCs) in
+ terms of skill acquisition, business improvement, and increased
+ earnings, exemplifying AD Life Trust's dedication to fostering
+ sustainable livelihoods and community empowerment

Research and Documentation
+
+ AD Life Trust's rapid assessment of the Swacchanda Arogya Nestams (SANs)
+ program in Kamareddy district highlights its success in enhancing access
+ to government hospital services. The program, initiated in 2017,
+ effectively provides patients with information, reducing waiting times
+ and inquiry loads while improving hospital atmospheres.
+
+
+ Volunteers involved in SANs report a sense of purpose and service. The
+ assessment identifies areas for improvement with minimal intervention.
+ Additionally, under research and documentation initiatives, AD Life
+ conducts assessments for development solutions, partnering with leading
+ researchers in India and abroad.
+
+
+
+ The organization believes in leveraging data and research to design more
+ effective interventions, such as understanding tribal consumption
+ behavior and promoting nutritious indigenous food choices. This critical
+ work contributes to informed decision-making by NGOs and policymakers.
+
+ Our activities aim to provide better outcomes for marginalized and
