Jewels of South India & Kochin Jewish Heritage

Today, Kosher Travelers proudly teamed up with the NGO Gabriel Project Mumbai, helping to better the lives of the people living in impoverished cities in South India.

Founded in 2012, Gabriel Project Mumbai (GPM), is an NGO, that works with the local communities in caring for vulnerable children in slums and under-served rural villages of Maharashtra, India. Providing them with a grassroots response to poverty, malnutrition, disease, illiteracy, hunger, and child labor in India.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Before we left on our trip, we organized a collection of new and gently used English books, that today, we were able to donate to the library of the school.

Our afternoon also included a trip to the medical clinic and the women’s co-operative collecting soap and recycled paper.

It was heartening to see the dedicated work being done by Project Gabriel and other organizations.
