Annual Report 2015-16

We are pleased today to launch our Annual Report of the financial year 2015-16. This document, which contains the complete report of all the activities, financials and the outcomes of our attempt to create a better and more developed Mumbai in the year of 2015-16.

So we leave you here with the Welcome Letter from our Founder & President, Jaume Sanllorente, and the entire report is available for free download here.

Dear friends and traveling companion (on this road towards a better world),

     We are very happy to share with you this report of activities from 2015 to 2016, where you can read all the data relating to another year in this peaceful struggle against poverty that you make possible for us, in the city of Mumbai.

     It is because of you, that in this period, 920 children have received preschool education, 311 girls and boys have gotten access to higher education, giving them a glimpse of a bright and hopeful future. Thanks to your commitment, hundreds of girls and women in the underprivileged communities have become the leaders of their own destinies.

     In the slums areas in which we work in the city of Mumbai, is where basic human rights are absent, and where the opportunities for access to decent life are often very slim.

     It is impressive to see the great change that is a simple encouragement on the lives of children, mothers, parents and patients. We realise, once again and in spite of the difficulties that it is worthy to keep on advancing in this task of providing the tools that may allow the poorest and most vulnerable citizens of Mumbai to take charge of their own destinies.

     I could go on and on emphasizing on some of the information you’ll find in this report, but I would emphasise that behind each figure, behind each number, behind every advance and achievement, are Sravani, Vijay, Bhushan, Asmita and many others like them – a name, a life, a story of its own and now, thanks to you, our own future where dreams are turning into beautiful realities.

     Therefore, especially on their behalf, thank you very much, wholeheartedly.

Jaume Sanllorente
