Dear Well wishers "Greetings from Sharon Society of Pondicherry" As you all know that our Sharon Society of Pondicherry is providing many social services to the vulnerable people in society. Under the "SNEGAN" Project For the past 10 years we are rescuing many abandoned elderly people who are staying on the road side Today we came to know that for the past few days a 72 years old lady is staying on the street of Lawspet without food. Immediately our Sharon Society Volunteers reached there and rescued that old woman from the street then we gave first aid, food and counselling to her. Later on the old women was handed to her children at Thavalakuppam, Puducherry. And today we came to know that due to the lockdown of Civid -19 one lady and her child with cancer are suffering near Jipmer hospital without any transport facilities. Immediately we went there and rescued them and took the lady and her child in our vehicle and handed them to their family members at Chidambaram. Hence , if any person willing to join this humanity activities means please give your support for us. "Thanks with regards" G. Mohan ( Founder of Sharon Society of Pondicherry)
