#HothurEmpowers

During this difficult time, the crimes against women in their own homes and locality has risen. Further increasing suicides and also deaths that go unreported of victims that have suffered from domestic/gender based violence.

We are helping these ‘survivors’ of violence and abuse, just by doing the most simple thing anyone possibly could—we are listening. Followed by financial aid, shelter, counselling, therapy and support in all possible ways.

#HothurNutriMeals

The population of Bengaluru urban poverty was enumerated as 87.5 lakh. With a steep escalation after the first wave of the pandemic. The second wave, along with the imposed conditions of the lockdown will push more people into vulnerability of starvation.

We are providing meals with a high nutritional value. With a projected target of 2 lakh people that the meals would reach.
“The secret ingredient is always love and a little kindness!”

#HothurWarriors

Nurses and medical staff have become the unwitting heroes of the coronavirus pandemic, as their struggles and long hour shifts sometimes go unnoticed and unpaid, due to the current surge and lack of funds. These are the Hothur Warriors we would like to highlight in this current situation.

The Hothur aid is a constructive plan to help the health care workers in a financial crisis or need in the form of a donation person to person.

The global Corona virus outbreak has affected millions of lives, some more gravely than the others. It has been an extremely challenging time and all our hands at the foundation have been occupied. Minimum and daily wage earners have been hit by the national lockdown most severely as they struggle to put food on their tables every day.

Hothur Foundation organised multiple food distribution drives providing three nutritious meals a day with its #HothurNutriMeals initiative in addition to giving financial aid, hygiene supplies and employment opportunities. Our goodwill ambassador, Sonu Sood has been a selflessly invested efforts and resources to aid our initiatives.

Another disturbing issue faced by our country amidst the surge is household violence, the shadow pandemic. Domestic violence cases increase two fold amidst an already serious pandemic. Men violently take out their frustration on women, who are stuck with no means to be heard or defend themselves from the increased outbreaks in addition to restricted mobility.

Hothur Foundation has been helping victims of domestic violence with financial aid, shelter where necessary and counselling over the phone with #HothurEmpower . A helpline number has been set for victims to reach us. We aim to reach out to and help maximum women as many women as our resources allow.

At Hothur Foundation we have been translating global actions and conversations to help the ones most strongly hit by the pandemic so they get through the crisis fairly. The damaging consequences of the diseases have not only been limited to the loss of life but also have had severe socio psychological consequences on survivors of acid attacks supported by Hothur Foundation. Consequent lockdowns have resulted in fears, anxiety and sadness.

Unfortunately the survivors have doubly suffered due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Many of them were facing severe domestic violence during the lockdown situation induced by the pandemic. The foundation has been providing them with professional counselling and aiding them with financial and legal support. Employment insecurity, lack of food, abusive husbands caused further troubles to them and their children for which we are taking all the necessary steps.

Lastly, with #HothurWarriors we aim to tribute all frontline workers, especially medical practitioners for keeping our healthcare systems smoothly running. To commemorate their courage and spirit of selflessness, Hothur Foundation has put together a constructive plan to help ease health care workers in financial crisis. Their long hours of service despite the known risks to their families, shortage of health equipment and pay cuts due to lack of funding did not derail their intentions of treating the inflicted.

Praying for the health and safety of all!
