Farmer Support Programme

The programme is designed and fundraising. Farmer support has not begun. Funding must be secured and individual needs assessed before support starts. The first 50 potential participants are identified; the programme can grow beyond them.

The planned process

1. 1. Find

   Identify farmers who may require support.

2. 2. Listen

   Hear each farmer’s circumstances and priorities.

3. 3. Understand

   Understand requirements before proposing assistance.

4. 4. Verify

   Assess need and suitable support against available resources.

5. 5. Support

   Provide full or partial assistance as appropriate; no identical kit or fixed amount is promised.

6. 6. Follow

   Document activity, follow up and share meaningful programme and expenditure updates.

Entirely voluntary pay-it-forward

A supported farmer has no loan, repayment requirement or obligation to help anyone else. Later, only when financially able and genuinely willing, they may choose to support another farmer. This is an optional design idea, not an outcome we claim has happened or guarantee will happen.

Budget and financial updates

₹15,00,000 is the initial programme goal, not a fixed sum for 50 farmers. The approved itemised allocation is not yet published. Donations are pooled. Ask the foundation for approved budget records; no estimated allocation is presented as fact.
