On February 27, World NGO Day is celebrated across the world in over 89 countries. The day is dedicated to recognising as well as celebrating all the good work done by non-governmental and non-profit organisations for the betterment of society. Actress turned humanitarian , who runs her NGO, (NMT), shares her journey.
바카라2023 makes it 16 years of my running NMT and without the support of the board, our annual committee, donors, and volunteers, none of this would have been possible. It바카라s their efforts that are successful in saving many suffering lives,바카라 she says.
Sharing the key objectives of her NGO, Somy adds, 바카라To get a victim to transform into a survivor and never go back to their abuse. That is the number one goal intertwined with their healing through therapy. At the moment, about $40,000 lives have been saved, but I want expansion, particularly in countries that are close to my heart like India or wherever there are injustices taking place. I want NMT to be there to help without any waiting lists. Transformation is doable once the police who are the first responders then NMT steps in, but it바카라s maintaining the transformation which I have to monitor vigilantly.바카라
Helping those who want to start an NGO, Somy Ali shares key factors that they should keep in mind. And, the first thing she wants them to be prepared for is that donors will come and go.
바카라Then there is the safety where I have been attacked over five times which one can바카라t escape if you are engaging in human rights activism. It바카라s a constant battle to get people to donate due to the stigmas attached to domestic violence universally and the fact that no one wants to talk about this issue. Every eight blocks in Miami there is someone being trafficked, which is horrifying. What makes it worse is that people are oblivious to this fact and once its labour and sex trafficking of minors and adults. My ethics and values forbid me to sit around and let this go on. But again, I couldn바카라t have and can바카라t do it alone. We need constant support especially from South Asia given the majority of the victims are brought here under marriages or jobs and then sold to traffickers,바카라 she says.
On specific goals that NMT has for the coming months, Somy Ali adds, 바카라It바카라s always saving more lives and expansion. Last week, I drove to Tampa to rescue a victim brought here from Delhi. It바카라s never-ending. But neither are problems we face on a daily basis and we don바카라t just sit around and hope they will go away and must take action.바카라
Running an NGO is quite a task. You have to deal with victims, who are going through trauma. Staying personally disconnected, yet dealing with them efficiently is essential, according to many. Somy reveals her working style.
바카라I bring my work home, especially the children바카라s case. In order to disconnect, I meditate and exercise. That바카라s been a huge help in separating the horrors I witness daily,바카라 she ends.
