Thank you very much for extending support to our child Shashi. We raised $1200 towards his living and education-related expenses. 70% were spent on food, clothing, personal expenses like face powder, soaps etc and the rest on his studies - books and school bag et al. $ 20 were spent on health.
When Shashidhar joined Sphoorti, his health was in a bad shape. He was from a slum neighborhood. His behavior and habits were subpar. Years of malnutrition took toll on his health. We took help of local physicians to improve his health. It took us 2 years to bring him to good health.
After a few years of staying at Sphoorti, Shashi began to mix up well with other inmates. He has also been a consistent dancer in most of our cultural events at and outside Sphoorti. He scord 8.8 in his STD X examinations.
After 10th, he joined Vignan College and then joined Sreenidhi Engg College in Ghatkesar. Shashi's story is one of grit and courage and love for life. Sphoorti feels privileged to have helped him find purpose in life.
The staff members have to be particularly commended for their commitment and hard work in dealing with children like Shashi.
His good performance in Academics gives us hope that he will do well in his further studies.
Over the last eleven years, the collaboration of our donors, well-wishers and other stake-holders has helped us provide a safe and secure childhood with facilities on par with those of a middle class family.
Through your support, we can help more children like Shashi to become able citizens of India.
