Ensured childhood to 40 deprived children in India

Viswa, 3 years old (name changed), is born to a drunkard father. His mother left Viswa and her husband for another man. Viswa is being taken care of by his grandmother as his father least cares about him. Viswa's grandmother is working in the nearby household as servant maid and feeding the child. 

Taking the small child who was then 1 and 1/2 years old to the houses she worked, affected the grand mother's earning capacity. It was then he was admitted to our early learning centre. The teacher and the caretaker of the centre take good care of Viswa. He gets a nutritious meal daily. 

Viswa is a loner due to his early childhood trauma - seeing his father and mother fighting with each other, his father drinking, the mother's selfishness in leaving the child with the father. He never mingles with other children, is silent most of the time, disobeys the teacher,  lies down on the floor and refuses to speak for hours together when scolded for not obeying. He is very adamant and stubborn. It is very rare that he smiles.

The New Life team is taking efforts to change Viswa's behaviour by showing more care and love. It is trying to mellow down the boy. WILL HE CHANGE? is the question of his grandmother who finds it difficult to manage the little boy when he gets angry or upset. We are continuing our efforts with the hope that he will definitely change and he will SMILE often.

Children like Viswa who have a difficult childhood are being cared for, fed and given basic education in the early learning centre of New Life. To help 20 such poor deprived children we need monthly $170. This is possible only with the support of generous donors like you who support our cause. If you can make your donations recurring it will give assurance to us. Kindly keep helping these children and also spread words about our project to your near and dear ones. Your words carry weight and will help us continue supporting children like Viswa.

Today is the Giving Tuesday and we are nearing the year-end. Your donations in this Giving season may have a multiplier effect. So donate and multiply the value of your donation.

Thanking you

With regards

Dear Donors,

Sajani (name changed) peeped from the hide out of her mom's saree and was more scared to see her father's face red with anger. He left the home and a wave of sadness passed over her when she looked at her beaten mother. This has become a routine part of her life now, due to the severity of her father's drinking habit.  She asked the coordinator of New Life who visited the centre the next day, to come to her home and ask her dad not to shout and beat her mother. She also added, "I am much scared of my father and do not want to go back to home". 

Sajani's father is a server in a hotel, and her mother works as a house maid. The mother should take care of the home as the father spends his earnings in drinks. Recently Sajani's mother met with an accident and had an operation. She  could not stay at home and take care of her health even after the operation as she should feed her three children. 

While Sajani was a small child, her mother used to carry her to her place of work. Now, with Sajani in the early learning centre, the mother could take up more jobs. When admitted in the centre Sajani was speaking less and was very weak. With the nutritious food we give and the tender care she gets, she gained weight and her speech is improved now. 

Many children in Kaja pet live in difficult circumstances like Sajani, and, they are being given a ray of hope with the support of you dear donors. Their health and education is being taken care of with the donations you give. We thank you dear donors for supporting  lovely children like Sajani. 

You can start a new monthly donation to ensure your support to these children on a continuous basis. You can also support us by telling about us to your friends and relatives and motivating them to donate to this project on their special days.

You will be happy to know that New Life mobilised support from the EVR Periyar Nagar Ladies Club, Cantonment Ladies Club and Rotary Club of Diamond City Queens. We got donations in cash and in kind. Rotary Club of Diamond City Queens is giving additional supplementary food twice a week since July. Thank you Diamond City Queens for giving pulses and healthy vegetables cooked tastily for our children and all the ladies who support these sweet kids. 

We thank you once again dear donors. Dont forget to support us on 12th September Bonus day and multiply the value of your dontions. 

With gratitude, love and regards
