Through the Eyes of Maitri Interns: Dignified Widows
http://maitri-interns.blogspot.com/2015/07/dignified-widows.html
Through the Eyes of Maitri Interns. Tuesday, July 7, 2015. Please visit Maitri’s Indiegogo platform for elderly widows’. This initiative benefits one of India’s most destitute and marginalized populations who is greatly in need of relief. Prior to Maitri’s efforts these women had no alternative to their suffering, abandonment, stigmatization, and poverty. Currently the old age homes and nutritional support offered provide a better quality of life to those in need. Photo taken by Brok Dixon.

Through the Eyes of Maitri Interns. Sunday, February 23, 2014. Exploring Hauz Khas Village. This past weekend Hilary, Anna, and I explored Hauz Khas Village. It was so much fun and was definitely the hippest place I've seen in Delhi yet. It had so many cool antique stores filled with vintage trinkets and old film posters. There was also plenty of high-end stores, offering lux clothing and gifts. While we were exploring HKV we came across this incredibly creepy hallway. Bright pink with fangs! Excuse the ...

Through the Eyes of Maitri Interns: An Experience for the Books
http://maitri-interns.blogspot.com/2015/07/an-experience-for-books.html
Through the Eyes of Maitri Interns. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. An Experience for the Books. The workers and volunteers at Maitri are making a difference daily to many lives, and I would really like to thank them for the experience I have had while in India. I have seen these individuals stay late tutoring students one on one who needed help with a particular subject to workers volunteering their own personal time on their day off to help promote the NGO and raise awareness about a particular project site.

Luckily, it was the second day of my internship that I had an opportunity to visit Vrindavan and be a part of the inauguration of Maitri’s second shelter home for widows, there. Without Maitri, these widow mothers would have had very limited access to any necessary resources, as most of them are forced to beg or take up sex work. In today’s times, possessing the working knowledge of Engl...
