Haven of Hope provides a wide array of residential, medical, habilitative, and educational services for subsequent generations of children still suffering the effects of the 1984 Union Carbide gas tragedy that killed up to 10,000 of the citizens of Bhopal within 72 hours. Although that tragedy struck Bhopal India over thirty years ago, it has gone on to claim over 25,000 lives to date, not to mention serious illnesses evident in today’s local children, including cancers, and horrible birth defects linked to lingering ground water contamination. Due to the physical deformities which these children suffer as the result of exposure to said contaminants, they’ve been neglected and abandoned by their families out of shame and embarrassment of their existences.
The Organization intends to extend its charitable activities to the United States where it hopes to serve the residential, medical, and educational needs of impoverished Native American children, as well as other United States native children who may in the future fall victim to health-related disasters due to industrial negligence.
Haven of Hope’s charitable activities are made possible via individual donations. The Organization intends to seek to enhance the sustainability of its mission by the procurement of both private and public support.
