Presentation Transcript

Slide 2:

The spirit behind Seva Dhan’s noble cause was to help, support, guide and wean the chemically dependent away from their addiction.

Slide 3:

SEVA DHAN FOUNDATION is the pioneer in drug rehabilitation in Mumbai. It was founded in 1982 by the late Russell Pinto, a drug dependent, with the help of a few like minded individuals to control the spread of Drug and Alcohol addiction.

Slide 4:

THE PROGRAMME

A team of highly dedicated social workers, ex addicts and alcoholics developed Seva’s successful “rehabilitation programme” which includes individual, group and family counseling sessions, psycho-therapy, medical support and yoga.

FINANCIAL AID

Slide 18:

As a result, this unit has been functioning in a modest farmhouse; set-up on land gifted by a philanthropist in 2001 and is financed by donations, fundraisers and a nominal contribution from families of the patients to cover the cost of their meals.

Slide 19:

The Govt. of India gives financial aid in part to support these activities except for the Rehabilitation centre as it does not come within the ambit of its programme for the relief of such individuals

Slide 20:

The accounts are audited by a firm of Chartered Accountants and are filed with The State Govt. and the Income Tax Authorities. A governing body of voluntary and experienced persons oversees the functioning of the Organisation with the assistance of Mrs. Clema Pinto - the Co-founder of Seva Dhan Foundation.

Slide 21:

Seva Dhan Foundation is registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 (Reg. No.Bom/486/82G BBSD) and Bombay Public Trusts Act (Reg.No.F7741 Mumbai). It is exempted from Income Tax under Section 80G and is registered under FCRA to receive foreign contributions.

Slide 22:

PURPOSE OF THIS APPEAL

Slide 23:

As the present accommodation at Dahanu is limited, it is not possible to take in additional Inmates without raising the structure.

Slide 24:

The estimated cost of raising the structure to a first floor level is about Rs.600,000/-

Slide 25:

This appeal is addressed to well-wishers and benefactors who support this cause, to donate in cash or by cheque to enable us complete this modest building to a first floor level.
