Through fundraising a new home has been built for the children in the village of Bori which is over eighty miles from the city and well away from the risk of sexual exploitation. Seema Waghmode and her husband, Shirish, visited Scotland while on a trip to Europe. For over twenty five years they have both worked to improve the life of sex workers and their children in Pune.<\/p>\n<p>SI Dundee was delighted that Soroptimists from clubs throughout Scotland north and south came to meet Seema and hear of her work with the sex workers and her determination to help their vulnerable children.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_495\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-495\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/P1011972.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-495\" src=\"\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/P1011972-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Seema and Shirish are pictured with SI Dundee President Elect Elaine, members and guests.\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/P1011972-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/P1011972-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/P1011972.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-495\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Seema and Shirish are pictured with SI Dundee President Elect Elaine, members and guests<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Seema&#8217;s Project please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.freetolivetrust.org\">http:\/\/www.freetolivetrust.org<\/a> the Scottish Registered charity running the project.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_496\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-496\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/Picture4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-496\" src=\"\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/Picture4-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Home for the children at Bori\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/Picture4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/Picture4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/Picture4.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-496\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">Home for the children at Bori<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_494\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-494\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/IMG-20160808-WA0011-Copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-494 size-medium\" src=\"\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/IMG-20160808-WA0011-Copy-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"IMG-20160808-WA0011 - Copy\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/IMG-20160808-WA0011-Copy-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/IMG-20160808-WA0011-Copy-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/scotland-north\/files\/2016\/10\/IMG-20160808-WA0011-Copy.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-494\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"> The first children arrive at their new home. <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>SI Dundee member, Pam Cairns , co- founder of The Free to Live Trust, thanked members and guests for their generous support.<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 5th &#8211; First Speaker Meeting of the Autumn.
