Chance For A Life With Dignity
Due to poverty and lack of access to basic quality education, many
children in slums drop out from the schools and get engaged in income
generating activities. But since they are unskilled, they end up being petty
labourers, vendors or collect garbage on and off streets. AAS Organisation aims at
ending this vicious cycle of poverty and providing vocational skills to
adolescents and youth especially girls to increase their chances of finding a
respectable profession and becoming a contributing member of the society.
How Does Skill
Development Impect on People and Society ?
People who participate in
training can access better working and payment conditions, a higher
employability and a better quality of life. Developing qualifications and
competencies should guarantee their capacity to adapt to changes in
technologies and the organization of work..
Society perceives the impact of
the development of competencies as jobs of higher quality, higher employment
and formality rates, reduction of poverty, social inclusion, respect for labor
rights and competitiveness on global markets.
Additionally, the development of qualifications can also help build more equitable societies. There is a close relationship between the various forms of labour market exclusion – such as unemployment, underemployment and low wages – and poverty and discrimination. Therefore, training actions which contribute to solve such forms of exclusion will have a direct bearing on the fight against poverty and social exclusion. Social benefits include sensitive issues such as reducing violence and crime rates, and becoming more integrated to the family, the community or the society as a whole.

Health and Survival,Nurturing Lives:Bringing Smile
Nearly one-fourth of India’s urban population or about 100 million
persons reside in slum or slum-like conditions with very limited access to
health and other basic services. The health status of the urban poor population
is considerably worse off than the rest of the urban population. Every day,
large numbers of children are dying in Delhi slums, because of lack of access
to basic health care facilities.
AAS Organisation works with the children
from the most marginalized, economically deprived families to support them in
treatment of critical illnesses. The parents usually do not have a huge amount
of money to spend on treatment of such illnesses.
The organization sponsors treatment of children and helps them to get back to
their normal lives.
AAS Organisation has provided support for
many children till date. Recently, the organization supported surgeries of
three children at a government hospital. The parents of these children work as
a daily wage laborer. The surgery has helped to restore the childhood of these
children who now lead a normal life.
