Dear friends,
Thank you for supporting our initiative to provide a safe and secure childhood to Sphoorti. Through your support, we are able to provide for snacks to more than 150 children for about three weeks. Because of this, we were able to attract more support to our evening snacks program. In a way, the impact of this Global Giving campaign is beyond the donations generated.
We present to you an instance which demonstrates how far your support has helped our children.
A is a 15 year old boy. He is studying in STD X in Government High School, Gowdavally.
He comes from a tiny village in Guntur district. He lost his mother when he was 5 years old. After his father remarried, the step-mother used to abuse him beyond imagination. Looking at his plight and his father's indifference, he was sent to Sphoorti in 2011.
When he joined Sphoorti, his health condition was bad. He was suffering from vitamin deficiency and no knowledge of English language.
After we started taking care of his health and other aspects, he responded well and has been taking keen interest in studies and non-academic activities.
Today, he is studying in STD X and is preparing for his Final examinations due in March 2017.
He is determined to get at least 9 / 10 GPA in his examinations. To this end, he is putting in extra hours and efforts each single day, including Sundays. We have been taking good care of his health so that he remains focussed.
Here comes the role of your support to our campaign. For the last couple of weeks, we have been giving A and his friends milk and biscuits every evening. On Sundays, we are giving them a health drink. We are also making sure they are sufficiently hydrated all the time.
You may not realize the extent of impact your generosity creates on lives of children like A. We are privileged to receive patronage from people like you who are from the other side of the world.
Thank you for sending love from your land. It keeps our hopes alive.
