I would like to reproduce a clip from the Purity magazine 29 March 2008 page 12 :
I was pondering how the above could be developed. Could it be developed in your country ? Even if it may be just a suggestion, I would like to use this forum and its wide reach to voice what I think is a very good idea.

Purity magazine wrote:In India, there are a considerable number of senior citizens who lead a life of isolation and despair. According to former President of India APJ Abdul Kalam, old age homes are not a positive sign for any society as they symbolise broken homes. However even if alienated senior citizens are housed in old age homes, they require much more than mere provisions of sustenance. For this Dr. Kalam has suggested merging orphanages with old age homes to provide mutual benefit to both parties. The little children will get caretakers, while the old people will get some fresh air back into their lives.
