About Purnima
BACKGROUND OF PURNIMA:
In a country where the population grapples with the harsh realities of poverty, illiteracy, compromised health, unemployment, premature mortality, and the unforgiving forces of nature such as droughts, floods, and excessive rainfall, the challenges seem insurmountable. The dire lack of resources to offer proper care, coupled with environmental degradation due to unchecked exploitation, has left the populace struggling for necessities such as food, shelter, and well-being. The aspirations of the youth for a peaceful life have been derailed, and the nation’s economy hangs in the balance. Amidst this turmoil, NGOs have emerged as beacons of hope, working alongside government initiatives to reshape the destiny of these nations.
One such ray of hope is “PURNIMA” (Means – Full Moon) a non-profit organization that has been a steadfast companion in the journey towards socio-economic development since its inception in 1980. With an unwavering commitment to fostering civil society and community growth, “PURNIMA” stands as a testament to dedication and empathy. Its primary focus lies in uplifting the marginalized segments of society, including the impoverished, women, youth, and minorities. Recognizing that progress is not just a desire, but a necessity, “PURNIMA” has undertaken multifaceted initiatives to address the pressing issues that hinder the nation’s advancement.
