About Us

THENDRAL MOVEMENT

Empowering women and girls who face violence & sexual harassment from their intimate partners, denied property rights, less access to jobs and healthcare ; & children who lack access to education.

It was founded by Ms. Vedhanayagi in Ranipet district, Tamil Nadu in 2006. THENDRAL is a Tamil word meaning “Breeze”. Also, THENDRAL is the abbreviated form of “The Holistic Eagerly Nature Development Related Alternative Life”. The purpose is to serve humanity through the concept of 'Back to Nature'. On the road to globalization with rapid changes in technological growth, people are alienated from a balanced social life. Despite growth in technological aspects, many social evils still persist and are unaddressed. In this scenario, service to humanity has acquired new relevance. It demands equipped people to meet the challenges of life so that it will help them contribute their share in healing some of the social imbalances. Our programmes and activities are for the welfare, advancement, and empowerment of the needy, poor, and deprived from the perspective of women to establish a violence- free social order.

Our focus areas


An integrated approach to build a equitable and empowered society


Mission & Vision



OUR VISION

Harmony in Life

OUR MISSION

Confirming the social security of every individual through their contribution and participation in the competing social, economical, ecological, political and psychological divisions through the range of community-based, action-oriented, and people-centered programmes.



Programs

THENDRAL Movement's presence is crucial to addressing these social evils in our project areas. Being a victim herself, our founder understood the difficulties these women were going through in their lives. Our community development programmes involve effective participation of our target communities to bring improvement in socio-economic, health, political, educational, psychological, and cultural aspects of their lives. Through counselling, awareness generation, skill training, education, and vocational training, we have empowered communities to be self-reliant. THENDRAL's interventions in the lives of victimized women have brought some significant changes in their lives. Our journey is to uplift communities until we create a violence-free social order in society.

WOMEN EMPOWERMENT

Women from marginalized communities, widows, and single mothers are very often excluded from availing the livelihood opportunities in society, abused by patriarchy, and restrained from exercising their basic rights. We coordinate with the government, and other like-minded organizations in reaching these target communities and provide solutions based on the problems they face through networking, guidance, formation of SHGs, family counselling, women forum, income generation activities, legal justice, care for victims, and awareness generation for their rights. Our overall aim is to promote gender equality, behavioural changes, improve their standard of living, social security, and reduce suicide and divorce rates.

CHILD AND YOUTH DEVELOPMENT

Our target communities are slum & rural school children, adolescent girls, youth girls and boys, transgenders, and physically challenged. We help these communities through issue-based interventions, and they are: - Providing creche care for children - Career counseling - Skill development programme - Youth leadership programme - ISDS - Integrated skill development Scheme - soft skills, and life skills training.

HEALTH AND AWARENESS

Health is an important aspect of our work. We promote the health of the communities we work with through different approaches. We have S4S Club (Awareness on self-defence, fitness of the body, healthy food habits, and girl children physical abuse) and Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) programme for adolescent girls. We conduct awareness generation programmes on cancer, irregular menstrual cycle, importance of mother's milk to the baby, use of healthy sanitary pads for women. We also conduct health awareness workshops for women by experts. Additionally, we also provide homemade Health Mix ""Hello Breakfast"" nutritious powder for weak and anaemic women.

RESCUE AND REHABILITATION

We have a special infrastructure for our various programmes to rescue and rehabilitate women, children and youth. We run a short stay home, a counseling center, training centre, and creches to rehabilitate victimized communities.

Supporting a Puthirai Vannar Entrepreneur Visually Challenged Woman with Credit-free Loan

ஒருகாலத்தில் உதவி பெற்ற சமூகமே இன்று உதவி வழங்கும் சக்தியாக மாறுகிறது. புதிரை வண்ணார் சமூகத்தைச் சேர்ந்த பார்வைத்திறன் குறைந்த ஒரு பெண்மணிக்கு தென்றல் இயக்கம் வட்டி இல்லா கடன் வழங்கியது. அந்த சிறிய உதவி ஒரு தொழிலை மட்டுமல்ல, தன்னம்பிக்கையையும் உருவாக்கியது. **பெறுபவராக இருந்த என்.ஜி.ஓ., இன்று தருபவராக மாறிய மனிதநேயத்தின் தொடக்கம் இது.**

Literacy (Tamil & English) Numeracy (Mathematics) skills to assess Learning Level among Children

In the process of implementing the Ennum Ezhuthum Mission to assess a child for their learning levels in language and mathematics Madhi Foundation collaborated with Thendral Movement. During the Covid19 pandemic lockdown crisis, the entire nation was frozen from all activities especially, education for Primary School Children. After the release of the lockdown, the schools reopened for offline classes. The 24 monthly breakdowns for the poor children have increased their learning ability especially LSRW Skills dull and weak. In view of assessing this on particular subjects like MATHS and LANGUAGE Madhi Led Assessment (MLA) was initiated in the Chennai district of Tamilnadu in 2 Schools as a Pilot Project.  The objective of the study is to understand the learning levels of children, specific to Foundational Literacy (Tamil and English) and Numeracy (Mathematics) skills since they have missed almost 2 years of direct schooling due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With the able coordination and guidance of the MADHI Foundation's Senior Manager Ms.Pratiba and Mr.Puviarasan & Ms. Mirra, the Assessment was carried out. Dr.P.Vedhanayagi, Founder of Thendral Movement, Ranipet has done excellent coordination, among the 10 volunteers and realized the Survey among the 246 Children. One day of refreshing training enabled the Volunteers to understand the subject and the importance of carrying out the task and accomplishing the data collection in 2 Schools among the children who belong to the class of 1st to 3rd std.  This task was eased by her meticulous plan and systematic execution. Frequent communication with the district team encouraged them to perform well. Despite the monsoons, the 10 Volunteers made it a super success.

The outcome will help the Government-Education Department to design plans for enhancing the LSRW Skills among primary school children. The assessment began on 16.11.2022 and ended on 18.11.2022 amidst all odds we successfully completed the survey.
