Securing rights, health and development for a just society
AROGYA AGAM is based in Tamil Nadu, South India. We grew from the leprosy clinic started by Dora Scarlett, the founder of our parent organisation. We started AROGYA AGAM in 1982 as an Indian registered charitable society.
Our vision is to help build a just society and our mission to secure rights, health and development for marginalised people.
We work with the most disadvantaged people, giving priority to women and children – people living with HIV, tuberculosis and leprosy; Dalits and the most discriminated among them; Tribals, women in prostitution, transgendered people, sexual minorities, children at risk and people with disability.
Our strategy is to mainstream gender, child rights, disability and the needs of the most disadvantaged people of the area. We continue to provide direct services to fill gaps in existing facilities where necessary. But the main strategy is to encourage and support community volunteers and community based organisations to advocate for their rights and entitlements.
Please support Arogya Agam’s donation drive between September 10th and October 2nd, 2018 through Global Giving. We need to raise $5000 to earn us a permanent spot on this premium crowd funding website.This spot will attract more and more donations, matching funding and backing from Global Giving’s corporate partners.
