STEP 1: FEEL We found cleanliness standards very low with people
throwing garbage in the drainage, not using the dustbins, using plastic carry bags etc
Children getting addicted to unhealthy foods like Bingo, Lays, Kurkure and soft drinks like Pepsi & Coke
Children were using bad words and urinating/defecating in the drainage
We wanted to find a solution for this
The child is the father of man. We wanted to inculcate good habits among our street children .
So we started, MI Eyakkam ( Mission Is Possible) in our street
Our street – a glimpse
STEP 2:-IMAGINE
We prepared a tabulation of Good Habits consisting of habits – positive & negative
got an idea to make nurseries at home from the seeds of the fruits we ate
discussed the foods we ate as good and bad and suggested alternatives
searched the net for finding the effects of the soft drinks on health
Organized games in our street to create awareness about MI eyakkam

THE VITAL STATISTICS
Case study 1:- Roshan & Amrut ( members of MI) - Family Expenditure on snacks & soft drinks
Before joining MI After joining MI
Case study 2:- Pradeep & Surendar ( members of MI) - Family Expenditure on snacks & soft drinks
Before joining MI After joining MI
The statistics show how the children as well as their family members have quit eating unhealthy foods after joining MI eyakkam
It has also resulted in the reduction in expenditure on these junk foods thereby leading to family savings
The habits of Children in our street have changed and we have started teaching these to elders too!
The confidence level of the children has increased and we are able to find solutions to social problems near us by representing our concerns to the competent authorities
DESIGN FOR CHANGE!
There are over 3000 seeds of various fruits collected by us and nurseries have been set up in two places
And we have learnt to document our activites through this exercise!
Clearly,
“ MATTRAM VANDAAL ETTRAM VARUM”
(Change leads to progress)
