In keeping with Urjo’s philosophy of ‘Bhalo Theko, Bhalo Rekho’ ( stay well, keep others well), we in Urjo, focus on the well being of underprivileged elderly ladies and young girls. Apart from organising one off events like festival celebrations & entertainment programmes so that we spend quality time with them and also arranging for need based donations of clothes, educational and other necessary items, we also have some ongoing projects aimed at their overall well being and empowerment of the young girls, which involves a recurring expenditure.
