Member welfare
Confidential support for families facing illness, bereavement or hardship.
Chapter Vertical
The vertical that binds chapters to each other — diaspora relations, welfare, relief and the seva that reaches beyond the community.
One federation
A federation with chapters on five continents needs someone whose actual job is keeping them one body. That is this council.
The Community, Global Relations & Social Impact Council handles member welfare, diaspora connection, disaster relief and the federation’s social work. It settles members who move between countries, runs the chapter’s welfare fund for families in distress, coordinates relief when a chapter region is struck, and carries out seva that is offered to everyone, not only to members.
What this vertical does
Confidential support for families facing illness, bereavement or hardship.
Settling members moving between countries — documents, schools, community.
Coordinated federation response when a chapter region is affected.
Keeping chapters connected, twinned and exchanging people and programmes.
Food, education and health work offered beyond the community.
Dignified, member-verified support for families seeking alliances.
How a vertical runs
Verticals are departments of the federation, not features of a membership. No member pays to belong to one: every member of a chapter may join any vertical whose work they can contribute to.
Every chapter constitutes the vertical as a standing council with its own convenor and members.
The council agrees a yearly charter — what it will run, for whom, and how it will be judged.
It runs its own calendar of sessions, clinics, camps and referrals through the year.
It reports to the chapter and to the federation, so the work is visible and comparable.
Who this is for
Membership of the federation comes first — the verticals then open to you at no additional cost. Tell your chapter which vertical you want to serve in.
