BIG Christmas donation
Since 1987 Friends of Mettupalayam have touched on the lives of literally tens of thousands of people. Their work has always centred on improving the life circumstances and opportunities for people living in the area of Tamil Nadu. Over time, they have developed their work so as to provide support in a range of significant areas. These include: education, nutrition, disability, credit unions, health and welfare, farming and support for the elderly.
Currently they run two primary schools (the second set up in response to the tsunami), a 32 acre farm and offer support to over 200 women’s groups. Friends of Mettupalayam also arrange an array of health camps. There is a significant amount of support provided for the disabled in the wider geographical area
Over the last two months Ned and Jacky have also been collecting together art, craft and teaching aids which will be going out in January 2011
