About BLOSSOM Trust

BLOSSOM was established  in 1993.  Its initial aim was to help undeserved women and children in the Tamil Nadu province of Southern India.  The organization’s initial focus was on womens economic empowerment and social problems that negatively impact women.  However, through BLOSSOM's work with villiage communities in Tamil Nadu, it has broadened their focus to support the villages needs, especially individuals and families suffering from the stigmas of HIV/AIDs, TB or single parent families.  In order to represent, protect and empower these communities, BLOSSOM has expanded its work to economic development, health, social well-being and environmental awareness.  

BLOSSOM supports and empowers women, children and isolated communities through various programmes such as the Family Counseling Centre, Women's Self Help Groups, Vocational Training Programmes, Care and Support Programmes for HIV and AIDS victims and their families, Child Development Programmes and other Health and Environmental Protection Programmes.

Dayspring Home

The Dayspring Home was founded in 2003 by BLOSSOM. Although the Dayspring Home was initially founded to care for children affected by AIDS, (children whose parents have either passed away or can no longer take care of them), the home also admits children from single-parent families, where the only opportunity for the mothers is to work in the demanding work conditions of matchstick and firework factories in the Districts of Sivakasi and Virudhunagar.

Thanks to donations from overseas, the Dayspring Home moved from Virudhunagar to Chitturr village, giving the children a large and spacious environment to play in. Caritas Sweden bought land for the establishment of a poultry farm and building and The Dayspring Home construction was  funded through the generous donations and assistance from; Fr. Benjamine Vima, Mrs. Anna Cocozza, Sweden and two overseas volunteers.  Currently the Dayspring Home has the capacity to care for 25-50 children.
