The next stage would be to provide a solar-powered water pump, storage tank and water filtration system to provide clean drinking water.
The whole project is funded 100% by Pratibimb Charitable Trust, whose core activity is conducting life-improvement programs called Life and Breath (basic course) and Life is Mind Body Spirit (LiMBS – the advance course). These are programs that teach breathing exercises, meditation and laws of living. The funds collected from students during the conduct of these programs are utilised for such charitable work. (Check our upcoming courses here)
This work has inspired students to voluntarily donate handsomely. Pratibimb Charitable Trust is now planning to fund the construction of two more such dams in 2021. We are just waiting for the first project to be declared ready before we embark on the next two.

Through the efforts of the Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram NGO several homes are nearing completion with much of the structural work is done. Yet again, we thank all our students attending the Life and Breath & LiMBS courses, as the fees & donations received have been one of the supporting pillars of this rehabilitation effort.
