Project – Operation Restore
Objective
•To correct the functional deformities of crippled limbs of burn victims by surgical procedures
•To help them regain their working capacity and near normal life
History
•Started in 2010 , always ‘FREE‘ for needy patients
•Approx 55/60 surgeries / camp
•Previously it was a joint project of ‘Operation Smile’ + NBC + Rotary Deonar
•Surgeons & nurses from various countries + local were involved in the surgeries
•Op Smile brought the Equipment , consumables along & introduced a process oriented approach
•NBC infrastructure was optimally utilized
Difficulty
•This Year SMILE team unable to participate
•NBC and Rotary still decided to go ahead with the project
•Other Rotary Clubs of the District invited to join Operation Restore to ensure total number of Surgeries covered this year will be 60,
same as that of earlier years
Methodology
•Screening – for socially & economically challenged section of society & for severity of deformity and patients recovery prognosis.
Carried out bi-weekly to reach patients from all over the state
•Surgeries – carried out 15-17 per camp where surgeons, anesthetists & nursing staff on voluntary basis
•Post operative care – largely provided by NBC staff & Rotarians
Project Cost for 100 patients
•Cost of Each Surgery is about INR 80,000/- (US$ 1500)
•NBC is taking only expenses for medicines and consumables whereas all cost for treatment and hospitalization is underwritten
•This works out to be INR 20,000/- (US$ 400) per surgery
•Target is to treat 100 patiets per year, hence project cost is INR 2 million (US$ 40,000 )
Disease prevention and treatment

Project – RWH & Drinking Water
History
•Water scarcity is a growing problem both in quality & quantity to the city, state, country & world:
•Serious decline in underground water table due to uncontrolled & over consumption
•Insufficient municipal water supply, capacities of the reservoirs inadequate to cater to growing population in cities
•To worsen matters – we face erratic monsoons, poor infrastructure, defective delivery systems
Two focus areas for schools
•Inadequate supply of water in toilets causing decline in basic hygiene & sanitation
•Lack of clean drinking water to school children
Project Idea
•Construction of Rain Water Harvesting Systems to catch the run-off of rain water from roof tops and terraces of the school buildings. This system
consists of tanks, pumps, sumps, collection, filter, storage units and will provide:
•relatively clean and free source of water
•a source of water at the point where it is needed
•owner-operated and managed units
•a socially acceptable and environmentally responsible idea to promotes self-sufficiency and water resource conservation concept
•a simple, flexible technology that is easy to maintain
•a non labor intensive, cost saving system for construction, operation and maintenance
•In addition an RO (Reverse-osmosis) plant can further purify the collected water to make it safe for human consumption. This system consists of RO
plant, pipes, and water dispensing unit
Methodology
•Municipal schools offer both sufficient land area as well as terrace area ideal for RWH system
•Target is 10 Schools in the Chembur-Deonar area
•The Club has already covered 9 schools (non-municipal) and this will enhance the existing coverage areas
•Installation work will be carried out after due permissions and licenses obtained. Work will be awarded after due diligence to competent
contractors, Club will ensure its operation from year to year including maintenance & replacement costs
Project Cost for 10 schools
•Average cost for 1 Rain Water Harvesting system = INR 1.30,000 (US$ 2500) per school x 10 = 13 lacs (US$ 25,000)
•Average cost of 1 RO Plant = INR 30,000 (US$ 500) per school x 10 = 3 lacs (US$ 5,000)
•Total project cost = INR 16 lacs (US$ 30,000)

Project – Training of Famers
History
•Over the last two decades we have adopted a group of villages in the Karjat Taluka
•Have installed 5 Rotary Community Corps in these villages
•Undertaken projects for construction of toilet blocks, bore wells, check dams, drinking water systems as well as supporting the schools with books, furniture and
infrastructure.
•Next project is to establish a local Community Centre
Difficulties
•A failed or erratic monsoon
•Dire consequence as the farmer is forced to fold up his business by selling it in distress
•Worse is that he may end his life under mounting debt, family pressure and hopelessness
•Lack of credit, awareness & guidance, innovations not reaching them, supply of quality seeds, pesticides, farm implements, supply of electricity, erratic release of
water from reservoirs, lack of market & commercial understanding, groundwater availability
•Lack of publicity of Govt. subsidy schemes among rural poor, particularly illiterate villagers
Project Idea
•A training and knowledge sharing program for a group of farmers belonging to these villages adequately addressing these elements
•The use of relatively low cost and technologically advanced practices would be greatly benefitted by visiting this region and getting an opportunity to learn the skills,
practices, methods & technology used.
•Bring this information back home to effectively convert and develop the similarly arid regions of Karjat and grow it into a model village like Israel
Methodology
•5-7 Farmers selected from our RCC region and an accompanying Rotarian
•Need a Partner Club to host the VTT farmers to support a practical training program for 15-20 days and use of Inter-Government schemes between Israel & India to
assist in the program.
•Our Club will then ensure that when the VTT farmers return to India, we will arrange to impart this knowledge to the other farmers in the region under a well-
conceived structure and supervision of our Club.
•Similar exchange of a professional team from your region could be arranged
•Opportunity to mutually share these agricultural concepts with each other
•This program is conceived to be an annual exchange between the 2 partner Clubs for the next 3-5 years and use each annual trip to focus on specific aspects of
agricultural development
Project Cost for 5 farmers + 1 team leader (6 persons)
•Air travel to & fro = INR 60,000/- x 6 = INR 3.6 lacs
•Lodging & Boarding = INR 2000 x 6 x 20 = INR 2.4 lacs
•Training & local travel = INR 1000 x 6 x 20 = INR 1.2 lacs
•Total Project Cost = INR 7.2 lacs ( US$ 13,000)
