OUR PROJECT
The Longitude Uncaste India Campaign promotes survival, empowerment, and equality for families in the Dalit (Untouchable) villages of Kothasatram and Indiranagar in Andhra Pradesh province in Southern India. The plan in-turn is to make a big impact on many other villages in India struggling under caste discrimination.
GET INVOLVED
A donation of $1/day will provide milk & eggs for THREE kids everyday AND provide enough medicine to keep a WHOLE FAMILY healthy.
Even a little bit will help. Please consider making a $7, $30 or even $365 donation to provide life-giving support for a week, month, year or longer.
LONGITUDE UNCASTE INDIA CAMPAIGN
Our vision is to get each village where we volunteer to a place of self-sustenance and on the road to being free from oppression in 5-10 years. The plan has three equally important parts:
Survival – Shelter, Food, Medicine
Empowerment – Farming, Trades
Equality – Political lobbying, Raising awareness, Seeking justice
So far, the Longitude Uncaste Campaign has been successful!
Families are settled into their new homes, the kids are gaining strength from all the milk and hard boiled eggs they've received from the Children's Feeding Center, the medical supplies provided by KI-Care are helping to keep everyone healthy and overall the spirit has truly changed for the better in the KI villages.
To bridge the gap between now and then and keep the program in KI from collapsing, we need to raise $12K. This will keep the children's feeding center and the health care program alive for another year. Some of the money has already been raised, but we still need much more. Please, help pave a bright future of prosperity and empowerment for these people and play a significant role in changing the face of history!
