I come back home and think I’m safe….but minutes later I feel trapped. There is no escape from reality... no place to safely place your head down to sleep. It’s a cruel world out there…bombs, terrorism, violence taking place in different forms targeting people from all walks of life. The mind has become our worst enemy. With terror blasts taking place in major cities in our country where and how can we feel safe? Revenge, jealousy, status, distinction are all possible reasons why terrorists perform these terror acts, but who's to say.. I take a step anywhere nowadays..a walk down the lane, a hop on the local train, a visit to the local bazaar..anywhere.. but there's always this new fear within me..I can't fight that.. death is inevitable and we all have to face it one day but now its not only just by murder, or natural causes but its by terrorism- the new enemy of our society.

Karina Pandya in Conversation with Co-Founder of the Banyan, Dr. Vandana Gopikumar

An incident of coming across a homeless and mentally ill woman in distress on the road in front of her college in Chennai paved the route for Vandana Gopikumar to establish one of the leading NGOs in the field of mental health – The Banyan. While she was yet a Master’s student of Social Work, Vandana along with a close friend Vaishnavi Jayakumar encountered several other incidents of not being able to find the right shelter and mental institution for a woman in need of medical and psychiatric attention.     The Banyan, which was established in 1993 has been a one-stop destination to not only rescue, and rehabilitate but also treat mentally ill women from low-income groups. Vandana Gopikumar has pioneered a movement, helping thousands of individuals not only reintegrate into society but also secure long-term medical treatment.    Not only is she the co-founder of the NGO – The Banyan, but is also the co-founder of The Banyan Academy of Leadership (BALM).

NGO Meet Becomes a Fulcrum of Mutual Help

  “There is no better way to thank God for your sight than by giving a helping hand to someone in the dark.”  --Helen Keller   There are numerous social causes which would remain otherwise ignored if it were not for the Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) contributing to the cause. January 6th, Saturday saw the coming together of 25-30 NGOs to provide a single platform for mutual help and support.

A Boutique Passport to New York
