Two Words
The Chingari Trust welcomes you. The trust works on behalf of families affected by the poisonous gas and the water contaminated by the toxin waste of the Union Carbide factory. It also works to raise awareness against the company.
The Chingari Trust is a registered philanthropic organization and it does not work according to any gender or religious differences or partiality. The trust has been started by women fighting for justice against the company and is run by a board of trustee who are all women.
This is an important step to spread the Bhopal Justice movement to the world under the leadership of women. The trust works for the health care and rehabilitation of the special needs children born to families exposed to toxin gas or contaminated water. It also works for the livelihood program of women victims. Women fighting against the injustice of companies are awarded The Chingari Award yearly on a national level.
The objective of doing this is to make sure that Union Carbide (present owner DOW) takes responsibility for their mistakes and be punished for the same, so as to make sure that a disaster like Bhopal does not happen anywhere else in the world.
To give medical help to some children and employment to some women or to give an award to women for their fight for right is not the only cause. Though it is true all these three steps are a creative step forward in the fight for justice.
The Chingari Trust runs on the money donated by people. So if you would like to help the trust your gesture will be deeply appreciated. In the struggle for Bhopal and against Union Carbide/DOW the women have kept the flames burning and through this effort they hope to unite the women of the world. They hope to transform these flames into fire, difficult to tame.
You can also be a part of the effort but giving your suggestions for improvement and helping us to function better.
