Disaster Relief
Drinking Water And Sanitation
Water is a basic need for human life and must be available in adequate and sufficient quantity and quality. Poor sanitation and hygiene conditions are a cross-cutting health concern in villages of developing countries. Poor sanitation leads to diarrheal diseases, which are responsible for deaths of young children under five. Poor personal and household hygiene also lead to trachoma, dengue fever, increased rate of infections, and a number of other diseases. A home with standing water can become a breeding ground for mosquitoes and increase malaria not just for that family, but for the entire neighbourhood. Due to Lack of potable water, villagers even drink from irrigation ditches, ponds, lakes and streams that contain high rates of harmful micro-organisms. Drinking of this unhealthy water causes frighteningly high infant mortality, shorter life spans and reduced energy for livelihoods. The access of safe drinking water is limited and water shortages can pose a real threat to daily life and the health of the communities in villages. Sometimes these villagers face severe drought in summer and face drinking water shortage. Such people have to walk several miles to get the drinking water for their family.
Sanitation facilities in villages are alarmingly poor and millions of having no access to toilets. To address this sanitation problem the governments, NGOs, non-profit organizations, donor agencies have been working in their own way, often with very little rigorous effort. Still there is lot of attention need to be given on hygienic conditions. We organize workshops and educate village communities about the importance of household hygiene, personal hygiene, and sanitation through outreach programs. We also have partnerships with local schools, encouraging children to adopt personal habits of hygiene, and to help their schools and their families adopt small sanitation measures like having 'tippy-taps' outside of latrines. Tippy taps are locally-constructed hand washing stations that make it easy for people to follow good hygiene practices.
To teach about the importance of safe water, we hold village outreach programs to educate about the importance of gathering water from clean water sources. We also educate villagers about the nature and danger of water-borne diseases contracted by drinking contaminated water. We install bore-well water pumps in villages so that clean water is available to them. To install one bore-well hand pumps it requires at least ₹68,000.00. One village needs at least two pumps and we will install more and more pumps in different villages and different regions.

Ethnic Riots Victims
The increase in ethnic conflicts around the world is a reality. The conflicts that arise from ethnicity-related are influenced by many factors that substantially determine the course of international relations, such as political and economic globalization, the balance of power, and regionalization. The regional issues such as economic imbalance, high unemployment rate, poverty, insecurity due to discrimination and water sharing between states are the main reasons for ethnic classes between the communities around the globe. Interests of political parties always try to influence the vote bank that sometime lead to the ethnic violence due to communal tensions between the communities. When people involved in strikes and agitations in order to pressurize governments to meet their demands also causes violence and ethnic disturbances. These disturbances and violence when occurred on a large-scale resulted in destruction of lives, damaging to private and public property, looting etc.

Flood Effected Victims
The erratic weather conditions during monsoons and torrential rain causes cyclones, landslides, floods, flash floods ultimately results in damage to agricultural crops, damage to properties, loss of life, damage to structures, buildings, sewerage system, roadways, power stations and transportation system. The Floods can also occur in rivers when the flow rate exceeds the capacity of the river flow. Because of these heavy floods, it causes damage to drinking water supply system which results in water contamination that increases the risk of waterborne diseases such as typhoid, malaria, cryptosporidium, cholera, gastero, diarrhoea and many other diseases depending upon the location of the flood.
As a human being our responsibility is to respond back immediately with relief efforts and help the victims of flood victims and provide humanitarian assistance to ease their sufferings.

Once you know what is needed, what you and you kid can do?
The details listed below are many ways that you and your family can volunteer and help OMDC for helping the victims of natural calamities.
Clothes
Find the weather at the location of people that you are trying to help, If it's winter, last summer's outgrown shorts are not going to be as helpful as a sweater you don't wear anymore. Start a clothing drive at your school, masjid, church, or scout troop. And have a plan to get the goods to the drop-off site or picked up on time for delivery.
Food
Your local supermarket may have a canned goods drive going on; check with them. If not, start your own. As with clothing, be sure to let people know what can be used and what would just be added weight.
Money
Often, money is what the most needed so do a charity drive, bake sale, or car wash to raise money. Make sure a parent or another adult is involved, so you can figure out the best way to handle the money. OMDC need checks made out to them. A big jar to collect coins works great, as long as you take it to the bank to be counted (most have automatic counting machines which save hours of stacking and rolling coins), and then deposit the money into the adult's account so she can write the check.

EDUCATION
Educate Orphans
Orphans are amongst the most vulnerable in the society as they do not have the same opportunities as other children. They are often forced into child labor in order to survive and miss out on a normal childhood. These orphans always suffer the most hardship because of the lack of governmental programs to address their educational needs and economic welfare. Often, these orphans in different counties are supported by their local community at a bare minimum subsistence level. The development of these orphan children to become contributing, law-abiding, responsible citizens of the country is severely hampered by a lack of educational and economic opportunity.
OMDC believes that only through systematic educations these orphan children can be alleviated above the poverty line. With your generous donations OMDC will support these children in orphanages and would provide education by enrolling them in established schools and colleges.
The main objectives of this project: ₹2,400.00 per month only.
-
Meet the basic survival needs of
-
Provide financial support for basic and continuing education
-
Monitor their progress in their educational goals
-
Remove obstacles that hinder their progress
This process will help them become contributing, law-abiding, responsible citizens of the society. To promote an economically stable family life and healthy environment at home, a monthly allowance is given to widowed mothers. The child is no longer forced to work to supplement the family income to the detriment of their own educational goals. You can become sponsor of one or of several children. Through sponsorship you will receive a photo of the child, progress reports and you may also arrange to visit them if you come to India. Such a contribution goes a long way in changing the lives of these individual children and their families, giving each child the skills to make their own way in life and contribute to their community. We are hoping that we can provide more children with an education in the future because there are many poor children in villages and in sub-urban areas, who are not getting any education due to lack of money or the uneducated parents.
Give them the opportunity of going back to school; these orphans could develop practical skills, which would enable the communities to break out of the cycle of poverty.
By sponsoring a child for only ₹80.00 a day that is ₹2,400.00 per month, you will be providing him or her with the basics that every child deserves - food, health care and education.

Scholarship Program
Most of the families in villages and slum area live below the poverty line and have very small income that they cannot afford to send their children to school. Many of the parents go to work in the morning and with the salary of the same day they buy food for dinner. They do not have any savings to pay school fees and mostly do not have time or the knowledge to teach their children themselves.

School Bag Kits
As we all know when a school year begins for children, they must have basic supplies to attend the school. Due to increasing poverty, many families are forced with the decision of buying food or school supplies for their children. Even majority of schools in the rural villages and urban slums do not have enough text books to teach the children, leave alone any writing journals for the children to practice their writing skills. The situation is very serious. As a result, teachers have to copy out texts stemming from their own copy of the books, while the children do their work on scraps of old paper. In some schools, where the situation is a little better, five children share one text book, some pens and pencils amongst each other to complete their homework even parents can`t afford to buy them. How can anyone learn anything under these conditions?

School Uniforms
The majority of students who attends school in villages and urban slum areas are in torn school uniforms or ragged old clothes. Parents are so poor and they are not able to afford new school uniforms as a result students stop going to the schools. Therefore OMDC aims to provide free school uniforms for those impoverished children in the villages and sub-urban communities. As little as ₹800.00 (INR) is required to buys a child a decent quality school uniform and even a better idea would be to buy the school uniforms in bulk. This not only saves us a lot of money, but also enables us to change the lives of several pupils at once, instead of focusing on only one child.

Support Rural Schools
The villages and urban-slum areas are the most breeding ground for poverty, exploitation, negligence, destitution and disease. The children living in villages and slums have minimal access to schools; there is a high rate of dropouts from schools by grade 8, often slum children are employed in the labor sector at a young age and village children assist parents in the fields.
Many children from villages are seeking to supplement the family income by working in distant locations which make regular attendance at school is impossible. Sometimes parents prefer to send their children for work over sending them to the school. Because their economic situation does not allow them to buy school books, study material, school uniforms and pay school fee. However, generous donors like you can sponsor to provide all these materials to the children so that they can feel happy to go the school. Even the infra-structure of the schools in villages and urban-slums is very poor and do not have the basic amenities. The school class room roofs are in bad condition and leaks during rainy season, even some areas do not have permanent building for the school. Schools do not have student desks to sit, no drinking water facility, no library and no toilets. All above reasons discourage students not to attend the school. OMDC aimed at to help these children to stay in school by providing educational material and other services.
Donate Zakat and Sadaqah to Support schools!
In villages the schools are in very bad shape and need lots of improvements,the parents and families are more than willing to help build and improve their schools, but they did not have the enough economic resources to undertake these improvements. Therefore OMDC`s focus is to extend support to build and improve these schools with your generosity and provide furniture, educational material, infra-structure support, computers and salary to the teachers so that the schools can enrol more number of children and provide quality education without charging any fee.

Medical Treatment Assistance
Nowadays the healthcare has become a nightmare for the poor as the hospital services cost is too high apart from the cost of surgeries and medications. The fruits of advanced and super specialty medical services are enjoyed by only rich people of the society where as a large mass of the society particularly living in slums and remote villages do not get the basic medical needs. They have to depend only on government hospitals which are not within the access to the remote villagers. Whenever a family is facing a financial hardship due to a serious medical situation they look for help from well-wishers and generous donors like you. The cost of surgeries and cancer therapy is too expensive and the poor people can`t afford.

Mobile Clinics
In developing countries health services have become a nightmare because of high cost involved as poor villagers can`t afford and the government hospitals also not reachable. The nearest hospital could be miles and miles away and some might even have to travel to other cities just to take tests at medical laboratories. Despite government efforts like opening public hospitals and even giving free medicine, many people have yet to experience the benefits of adequate health services. To supplement this situation, the private institutions and charitable organizations have started providing medical services to the villagers through mobile clinics .OMDC in collaboration with local hospitals provides Mobile clinic services to the poor and needy people.
Bringing a Clinic to the doorstep of Poor!
Mobile Clinic is a basic medical clinic that we bring directly to the poor. Staffed not only by general practitioners, this clinic also provides patients with dental, OB/GYN, and paediatric care, as well as access to preventative tests and are equipped with a basic laboratory station to provide doctors in the field with instant results to guide their diagnosis and treatment. The advantage of mobile clinics is the ability to respond to emergency situations in a quick time. It will be a quicker and more effective response to epidemic outbreaks. It is also more extensive access to preventive care for patients who do not require hospitalization or specialist visits. Mobile clinic staff can meet the victims in their time of need. When there are two or more mobile units in an area, they can be connected together to form a whole hospital or a complete medical facility. This can be especially useful in cases of natural disasters, like when a village is ravaged by hurricane, earthquake, tsunami other kinds of calamity.
Ensuring Patient Follow-Ups!
Mobile Clinic participants have the opportunity to work closely with and learn from the doctors as they identify individuals in need of follow-up care.The patients who present serious symptoms are provided year-round follow-up care by our community health workers and field nurses. The follow-up services include accompanying patients along each step of the process, providing financial support for treatments, educating individuals about their illnesses, and connecting patients to other health care providers, among others.
Providing Preventive Education!
These mobile clinics not only provide health services also become modes of humanitarian vessels of charitable outreach. The medical mobile van will roam in entire village areas and provide medical facility also provide educational workshops focus on informing patients about common health problems, demonstrating important screening tests, and answering questions that concerned parents and family members may have. In this medical mobile van a doctor and nurse will also be available and they will prescribe the medicines and give treatment to the patients at the same place.
Donate Zakat and Sadaqah for Treatment
Mobile clinic services aim to provide free health care to the poor and needy, in collaboration with Volunteer Doctors and Nurses from hospitals and medical colleges.

Sponsor Medical Equipment
Medical treatment at private and corporate hospitals has become very expensive only rich people can afford the treatment at such hospitals. The poor people have to depend either on government hospitals or community hospitals or diagnostic centre clinics. The government hospitals are very far and miles and mile away from the remote villages the only alternative is the community hospitals and clinics. Mostly these hospitals are run by non-profit organization to serve the poor people living either in villages or urban-slum areas. Rural community hospitals typically are much smaller than their urban and suburban counterparts and have only fever beds to accommodate patients. Rural community hospitals provide their patients with the highest quality of care while simultaneously tackling challenges due to their often remote geographic location, small size, limited workforce, and constrained financial resources. At rural hospitals' low-patient volumes also make it difficult for them to maintain high standards unless they have sufficient financial support to overcome the expenses like salaries to the medical professionals, buying new medical equipment, furniture, arranging extra beds and maintaining ambulance services for emergencies.

Self-Employment
Computer Training Centers
Computer Technology is increasingly making new applications. Earlier computers were mainly used for data processing. Most of the companies and organizations had many applications like pay roll, inventory control, account payables etc. But today this scenario is gradually changing. Many of the services that we make use of in our daily life is associated with computer applications. Thus computer applications give ample scope for rural and sub-urban unemployed youth to create employment opportunities. The youth is the back bone of the society since today's youth are tomorrow's citizens, Therefore if the unemployed youth are trained and made employable certainly they will become good and balanced citizens of the country and the society or else they may become the victims of any addiction and become burden to the society and the country.

Training on computerized accounting packages!
The advancements in information technology have eventually led to the introduction of Computerized Accounting Systems to help produce relevant and faithful representative financial reports for both management and external users for decision making. Computerized accounting tends to involve dedicated accounting software and digital spreadsheets to keep track of a business or client's financial transactions. It is a beneficial use of current technological advances. Accounting Software is a class of computer programs that perform accounting operations. Accounting Software is an application software that records and processes accounting transactions within functional modules such as accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and trial balance. Thus, these software packages allow the whole accounting system to be run on a computer hence the name Computerized Accounting System. A computerized accounting system records accounting transactions using a computer and accounting software. It is one of the database-oriented applications wherein the transaction data is stored in well- organized database. The user operates on such database using the required interface and also takes the required reports by suitable transformations of stored data into information. Therefore, the fundamentals of computerized accounting include all the basic requirements of any database-oriented application in computers. It helps simplify, integrate, and streamline all the business processes, cost-effectively and easily and helps presents the true picture of all the business undertakings to users of financial reports. Due to the rapid change in technology, many small businesses prefer to track monetary transactions with computerized software than keep track of all financial activity manually through the use of a physical ledger. The student will be trained rigorously for 6 months in the following accounting packages:
QuickBooks, Tally, wings, Sage One, Financial Edge etc.

Micro-Finance For Business
Traditional banks do not usually reach the rural population and are not interested in giving small loans to low-income families. For this reason, microfinance has been recognized as an important instrument to meet the financing needs of the rural poor and low-income population. Microfinance is about giving small loans for different purposes. Microfinance is a lending mechanism, which is similar to a repayable interest free loan given by some banks, but differs in its nature and size. Microfinance is generally small in volume and responds directly to the specific needs of rural or low-income urban communities.
Zakat / Sadaqah donations for Microfinance projects
Micro-finance is a proven way to strengthen viable, small businesses, resulting in increased household income and savings, and thus, alleviating the crunch of economic poverty. Microfinance system is designed for those people who do not have access to other formal financial institutions. Micro-finance beneficiaries are often self-employed, agricultural farmers, push-cart vendors, basket weavers and household-based business entrepreneurs. The access to micro-finance would help the poor to smooth cash flow and avoid periods where access to food, clothing, shelter, or education is lost. Micro-finance loan can make it easier to manage shocks like sickness of a wage earner, theft, or natural disasters. The poor people uses such financial help to build assets like buying land, developing agriculture, improving business which gives them future security. Women participants in micro-finance programs often experience important self-empowerment.
Because of the economic development initiative taken by NGOs, self-employed, agricultural farmers, push-cart vendors, basket weavers, many small businesses expand and become viable. As a result, poor families have enough to feed their children and send them to school. The marginalized poor develop their businesses and manage to live a decent life. This approach is very powerful in lifting communities from economic poverty, ultimately leading the community to be self-reliant and live with dignity. OMDC is supporting to the poor and unprivileged people through micro- finance in collaboration with other NGOs. If you decide to partner with OMDC in building economically stronger communities, you would be helping to reach out to millions of poor people and adding on to microfinance funds for communities. You can donate your Zakat and Sadaqah for microfinance support. It is an act of sadaqah jariya and you will get reward lifelong for helping the poor. OMDC shall partner with local NGOs in funds disbursement and keep the track of the funds utilization in business setup and progress.

Aquiqah, in Islamic terminology, is defined as sacrifice of an animal on the occasion of a child's birth. The performance of Aquiqah is highly encouraged. It is to be performed by the parents or the guardians of the child. The Aquiqah requires one goat for a baby girl and two goats for a baby boy and it has to be slaughtered in the seventh day if not possible, then in the fourteenth, if not, in the twenty fourth, if not, and then at any time. The Aquiqah is a must. If you don't do this for your child, your child will not intercede for his parents on the day of resurrection. If you parents did not perform Aquiqah for you because of various reasons then you can make the Aquiqah yourself at any time. You can distribute the meat to the poor or you can arrange a feast.

Fidiya/Kaffara
In some circumstances, a Muslim is not able to fulfil his or her religious obligation to fast during the month of Ramadan, or may want to recompense for a broken oath. Fidiya and Kaffara are the two solutions offered that can help a Muslim compensate for not fasting or breaking other obligations-paying of Fidiya or Kaffara also benefits members of the community who live in impoverished conditions. The following answers are meant to provide a basic understanding of Fidiya and Kaffara, and were derived through the consultation of a council of imams who follow the Fiqh Council of North America. It is advised that you consult with your local imam or scholar for more detailed inquiries.
Fidiya₹800.00 for each day fasting is missed during Ramadan
The Fidiya is a donation type within the Islamic tradition paid by individuals who cannot fulfil the obligation of fasting due to illness or old age or any other reasonable reason. Fidiya payments are meant to feed a miskeen (person in need) for each of the fasting days missed, and are equivalent to the price of one meal each for two people or two meals for one person. The estimated cost, on guidance from the Fiqh Council of North America, is ₹800.00 for each day missed or ₹24,000.00 for all 30 days of Ramadan. That price is based on the average cost of a basic meal throughout the country. Of course, if, on average, you spend more per meal, it is permissible to adjust the price accordingly. In addition, if the donor is from a low-income family, he or she should then care for the family's needs first before considering giving a separate Fidiya donation. Please click on DONATE NOW to pay your Fidiya online.
Kaffara₹800.00 for each meal and need to feed 60 people = ₹48,000.00
The Kaffara is also a donation type within the Islamic tradition that provides individuals who deliberately miss or break a day of fast during the month of Ramadan without a valid reason. According to Islamic guidelines, if a person misses a day of fasting unnecessarily, he or she should either fast for 60 consecutive days or feed 60 underprivileged people per day. The Kaffara of feeding sixty persons must be offered to distinct individuals and the estimated cost is ₹800.00 per person for 60 people, which equals ₹48,000.00 a day for each missed or broken-fast day. Please click on DONATE NOW to pay your Kaffara online.

Zakat / Sadaqah
Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam and requires all followers of the faith to donate 2.5% of their personal wealth to help others in need every year. Muslims believe all things belong to Allah and personal wealth is granted by Allah, and held in trust by us during our lifetime. Zakat is a financial term used in Islam referring to the obligation that an individual donates a certain proportion of wealth to the poor. The virtues of Zakat are innumerable, it essentially means of growth and purification, and is a means of purifying our wealth and our hearts in the way prayer purifies our souls. The Zakat is the counterbalance to greed and selfishness, and a mercy for the poor and destitute as it liberates them for the humiliation of begging. It transforms lives and its potential to alleviate the poverty is significant. The zakat is firstly preferable to give to one's relatives over those who are not, if they are eligible since Islam places a great emphasis on maintaining family ties, but great care needs to be taken as to whether one's relatives remain eligible, since their wealth could have grown taking them over the threshold of 'Nisab.' Islam is strict as to the categories on whom the Zakat can be spent.
Zakat - donate 2.5% of personal wealth every year to the poor!
As Muslims, it is compulsory for us to donate 2.5% of our personal wealth to those who are less fortunate than ourselves. One has to make sure that we have enough money for our private outgoings, including enough money to look after our own family. Zakat is only paid on assets exceeding a minimum threshold or Nisab. The Zakat threshold or Nisab is calculated according to strict measures used to value gold and silver at the time of the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). TheNisab is the exemption limit for the payment of Zakat. In other words, it is the amount which savings or capital or product must exceed in order for the Muslim owner to be obliged to give Zakat. Nisab amount calculated based on the cost of 84.9 grams of gold and 592.9 grams of silver. Please remember that you can pay your Zakat at any time during the year, and you can also set up a direct debit to pay your Zakat in monthly instalments between now and next year. However, many people choose to pay within the month of Ramadan every year for the extra blessings and so they don't forget to pay each lunar year.
OMDC has monthly recurring donation option through safe and secure PayPal system. Please click on DONATE NOW link and set up your monthly recurring donation or one time donation.
Most of OMDC projects are eligible for Zakat money!
Please donate your Zakat generously to OMDC as we will spend your donations on Zakat eligible projects only that benefit the poor, orphans, widows and other destitute people.

When requested we will also ensure that we send pictures of the project implementation to the donors so that it gives them a peace of mind.
Sadaqah (Continuous Charity): Donate Sadaqah throughout the year!
Sadaqah is an Islamic term that means voluntary charity - such as a charitable act, charitable giving with the intention of seeking the pleasure of Allah. OMDC accepts Sadaqah funds and uses on various projects. For those who want to donate Sadaqah but don't want to specify a project, they can give Sadaqah and OMDC will utilize properly and distribute your Sadaqah to people in extreme poverty in the form of cash, food (cooked, dry ration, meat), drinking water, clothing, scholarship support, medical assistance to the patients, support to schools, supporting to charity hospitals.
"If a human dies, then his good deeds stop except for three: a SadaqaJariyah (continuous charity), a beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him." - Sahih Muslim
Sadaqah is one of the most rewarding good deeds we can do in our lives as the benefits of giving SadaqahJariyah can be reaped now, and we can continue to benefit after we have passed.
Your SadaqaJariyah could help many deserving people change their lives for good, and in return you continue getting the reward as long as the poor people continue benefits from your donation through good education, medical aid and livelihood programs. OMDC strongly believe in helping people earn a decent living and become financially independent and self-sufficient, instead of providing them perpetual assistance. Then they don't have to be provided with charity for food, medicines, shelter, clothing etc.

Zakat-Al-Fitra
Zakat-ul-fitra is an obligatory charity on every young and old; male and female; free and slave Muslim towards the end of the month of Ramadan as a token of thankfulness to Allah for having enabled him to observe fasts. According to Islamic tradition Zakat-Al-Fitra is compulsory and the head of household may pay the required amount for the other members. It provides the needs of the poor and the indigent and relieves them from having to ask others for charity on the day of `Eid. It is an addition to the annual Zakat also called as Sadaqa-Al-Fitra. Its importance is such that it is the hallmark of Eid and aptly named as Eid-ul-Fitr. It amounts to the value equivalent to feed a person for one day. Ibn Umar said: "The Prophet PBUH enjoined the payment of one Sa'a of dates or one Sa'a of barley as Zakat-Al-Fitra on every Muslim, young and old, male and female, free and slave." (Bukhari and Muslim).
Donate Zakat-Al-Fitra₹800.00 per person before Eid Prayers!
The wisdom behind paying Zakat Al Fitra is two folds.
-
To purify the month long fasting of the Muslims
-
To enable the poor and less fortunate to enjoy the celebration of Eid
Fitra is a charitable donation of food that must be given before Eid prayer, before the end of the month of Ramadan, for the love of Allah (SWT). Fitra must also be given by every self-supporting adult Muslim who has food in excess of their needs, on behalf of themselves and their dependants.
OMDCwill distribute your Zakat-al-Fitra on your behalf to Orphans, widows and poor families in need to ensure that these destitute people are provided with food during Ramadan and the day of Eid. The amount has been set at ₹10 per person and adults will also have to pay the amount for their dependents. Please click on DONATE NOW to pay your Zakat-al-Fitra before Eid prayers.
