The Dayspring Home is a colorful and bright place, where children, who have lost their parents, are given a second chance to grow up in a safe and happy environment.
In August and September, we welcomed four new children to the home. Sri, the youngest one, was brought to Dayspring Home in September after his father had burned his mother, who as a consequence was then no longer able to take care of his two-year-old son. The father then left and got remarried. Also his grandparents are in no position to raise Sri, because both are HIV positive and therefore very weak. When arrived at the orphanage, the little boy was very shy and crying a lot, but after a couple of weeks he lightened up and is now smiling again.
In addition to this beautiful boy, we welcomed the two siblings Narayanan and Priya and Elakiya, who was abandoned by her father after her mother had died.
Today all four children are well integrated in their new family, receive three nutritious meals a day, are able to visit the local governmental school and are given the chance to grow up surrounded by happy faces and love.
All this progress and help is only made possible by donations we receive amongst others from GlobalGiving.
I want to dedicate one paragraph to Walla in particular. When the children enter the age of adolescence, they are officially supposed to leave the home. Blossom is currently in the progress of changing this rule, but still struggling to continue supporting the children financially. Walla is an exceptionally smart and ambitious young man of the age of fourteen, who would have bright prospects of successfully graduating from college and build up a career, if given the chance of visiting university. Blossom Trust and the children of the Dayspring Home need your help so they can receive the education they deserve. Walla will most likely have the possibility to study due to the financial support of Blossom Trust, whereas the future of the younger children is still written in the stars.
Blossom Trust appeals for your support!
