She expressed happiness on her presence and participation in the programme. Through little, too sufficient oration was given by her.
Quoting bible Rev. Fr. R.Savarinathan conveyed some useful messages. When the disciple asked unto our Lord Jesus that whose responsibility is it for the different ability. He replied that nobody could claim reasonability but the God wanted to reveal out through such person. Hence, he advised all the beneficiaries to be self-confident in life.
All the officials lectured for promoting confidence and ignoring the feeling of inabilities. They educated about the methods of getting support for the rehabilitation. Persons with different abilities in our project shared their experiences. Recalling their past excluded living conditions, they exampled our programmes to clear how the present improvement was attained through PMSSS. When banks turned-down their requests for loan, our project extended them maiden support; they happily spoke out.

They have their own share in it which is separately maintained as common fund [CF]. it is used for their CBO activities under Livelihood and Right Based causes.
