Our Impact
Water Conservation : Check Dams
On 14th October 2019 we constructed 5 Vanrai bunds along with the farmers at Plotpada, Village Medhe, Tal Vasai Palghar, Maharastra.
We tried understand and analyse the problems faced by the residents and invited them to join hands with us.
We filled cement bags with sand and deposited them on the banks of the streams in the village. At some points we restructured loose boulders to ensure they stop the flow and hold water.
The ‘Vanrai Bunds’ will be useful for agriculture, animal husbandry as well as increase percolation of water into the ground so as to keep the level of water in the village wells at a substantial level.
Clean Drinking Water : CDW Plant for Rural Communities
We set up a CDW plant at Haripar, Gujarat in August 2019.
Previously the village had low access to potable water. Now with the CDW plant all the villagers are happy to finally have clean drinking water for their needs.
Clean Drinking Water : Our 1st individual 6000 LPD UF Plant
Our 1st individual 6000 LPD Ultra Filtration Plant for Clean Drinking Water inaugurated in Anjar Kutch Gujarat.
Located at Shree Ganesh Indian Oil Petrol Pump, Nani Chirai, National Highway 8A. We received tremendous positive response from all the villagers.
Water Conservation : Drip Irrigation
Drip irrigation for farmers in Vav village in Gujarat has successfully saved water while allowing farmers to grow crops with good quality produce.
Farmers have been cultivating crops including sugarcane, chilli, giloda, turmeric and suran.This project was implemented in partnership with GGRC.
Water Conservation : Sprinkler System
We have installed sprinkler systems for farmers in Dalwana village in Gujarat. Sprinklers ensure water distribution across wide area with efficiency and minimal loss.
Farmers are happy to save water, time and costs.
Water Conservation : Tree Plantation
Tree plantation with IOCL at Varna village
250 trees planted and 400 plants distributed to the community for individual plantation.
One of the most well-received initiatives since everyone understands the value of trees and are happy to have them in their surroundings.
Water Conservation : Pond Deepening
265 famers from Dhudiya Agariya village and 35 farmers from the neighbouring hamlet, Samuhkheti have benefited from pond deepening.
Additionally, 95 farmers from nearby village of Jhapodar also benefited.
The water level of bore wells and drinking water sources have increased, since this year 2019, the rainfall was good.
In the photos 2 farmer beneficiaries: Mr. Manubhai Bhikhabhai Chavda and Manubhai Manglabhai Solera shared the above findings.

Shed for Animals : Cattle Shed
Domestic animals and animal husbandry is a crucial part of livelihood options in rural India. We help build cattle sheds and animal shelters adjacent to the houses in villages.
Ensuring the animals are safe and remain healthy thereby contributing to the family’s need for produce and additional income.
Low Cost Housing : Houses for Villagers
As an implementing agency for housing, we have facilitated the construction of a large number of low-cost houses in various parts of the country.
As a mediator, we have made available loans / subsidies to beneficiaries from various funding agencies like NABARD, Bank of Baroda, SIDBI, and Habitat for Humanity and Govt. of India’s schemes.
Our specially designed low cost houses provide rural poor with a pucca and proper housing meeting one of the most important and basic needs – a secure shelter.
Most of our rural communities do not have a proper house. Building a pucca house for them ensures a shelter against all outside elements and keeps them safe and secure.
Low Cost Sanitation : School Blocks
School sanitation project from SUZUKI Motor Gujarat Private Limited, Gujarat Anarde have planned to construct 7 sanitation units at Mehsana district at Gujarat.
Out of these 7 school sanitation units 2 school units were taken up for construction at in Finchadi and Hansalpur school.
Advantages of such sanitation blocks ensure children do not fall sick, attend school and costs from illness are saved.
Low Cost Sanitation : Individual Toilets
Anarde Foundation has developed a unique model for Individual Household Toilets. This model is equipped with a dedicated tank with water and a washing area to encourage clean sanitation. Other features include tiles, taps, door and ventilation.
We partnered with individual and corporate donors under CSR to build these toilets. Impact assessment shows improved health and living standards in these projects.

Farmers : Agriculture & Horticulture
We organized an all round training and demonstration program for our farmers in Village Shinai, Kandla, Gujarat, INDIA. An exposure visit, the idea was to share knowledge and demonstrate various best practices, techniques and technologies to improve farming. Activity based training included vision to MotaBhadiya where they saw recharge of bore well, demonstration of SRI in wheat, gabion structure and more.
Helped the farmers understand aquifers, village JalSuraksha Planning and Management, including water meter and water sources. Our Anarde team was delighted with the response to this program for farmers which was appreciated by all the participants.

Livelihood Opportunities : Vermi-composting
Vermi-compost is an organic fertilizer that protects the produce and increases fertility of the soil.
Our SHG groups are trained in creating vermi-composting which will be used by them and also provided to farmers at a reasonable cost earning them an income.
Farmers Support Program : Addressing specific needs of the community
Addressing the specific needs for the enhancement of the village and the people is very important. Such projects make sure the villagers are not deprived of basic things and their standard of living also improves.
Learning Aids for Schools : BaLA in School & Anganwadi
BaLA (Building as Learning Aid) has been implemented in the Primary School, Madap, Raigad, Maharashtra, India.
