Late Abhas Chatterjee a retired I.A.S. officer who was the then chairman of WWF- state office was a strong influence on the fledgling trust and the people associated with it. Under his leadership we were drawn to a 50 member Weavers’ Co-operative Society at a weavers’ village in Torankel (Khunti block) – another initiative that he championed. We members of Hope and Animal helped the Cooperative in addressing their marketing bottleneck. We participated in exhibitions in Ranchi, Jamshedpur, Mumbai, Kolkata and Delhi as part of marketing effort for continuous two years and helped keep a continuous workflow. We have also developed website for this society.
 

During a survey of employment issues in the urban unorganised sector we understood that self-employment in the informal sector constitutes a significant part of the urban economy. Further there is a concentration of women in this sector. It is characterized by relative ease of entry and low entry costs, which include low education, low skill & capital requirements but brings with it issues like low returns, absence of legal protection and regulation. We convinced this as an important matter warranting interventions.
 

We have jointly organised school programmes with the help of WWF-Ranchi under their Nature Club activities. We carried out awareness campaign with slogan, “Street Dog – A good Friend” amongst the children through out the schools in Ranchi. We also encouraged students to help the street dogs by feeding the waste food of their own houses. This is our regular activity. We also involved resident of different colonies to join and help to give better life to the street dogs.

The Association of Residential Colonies supported us with the little money required for stray dogs’ sterilization activity.
Organised and also personally helped at animal vaccination camps in Khunti Block, Ranchi district under State Bank of India’s funding.
We have been distributing old warm clothes to elderly people and small children in adopted five villages. We are thankful to the residents of Ranchi to help provide warm old clothes to give comfort to the poor and needy rural mass.
