The footsteps of courage: Lenin's story

By Sowmya Simhan | Trustee

Lenin with a newfound freedom
Lenin with a newfound freedom

Dear friends,

Greetings from Sukriti Social Foundation.

Thank you for your continued support, which has healed many children and made them enjoy their childhood. Here's one such story.

Lenin ran through the village, his laughter echoing as he joined his friends for a game. His mother, Elizabeth, watched with tears of joy and pride. Six years ago, her son was born with clubfoot, and she feared he might never walk. Your support not only corrected his physical condition but also transformed his life. Thank you.

When doctors confirmed that surgery could correct Lenin's feet, Elizabeth's heart was hopeful. After a year of anticipation, Lenin finally had the surgery, a significant step towards a brighter future.

Following the surgery, Elizabeth approached us for supportive shoes essential for Lenin's healing. Though initially uncomfortable, these shoes helped Lenin regain strength and mobility. There were many difficult days when he cried in pain from wearing them continuously. During these times, we encouraged and motivated Elizabeth, reminding her of the bright future ahead for her son.

Today, Lenin's ability to run and play is a testament to the life-changing impact of your generosity. The joy and relief in Elizabeth's heart are immeasurable as she watches her son embrace his newfound mobility and freedom. Thank you for making this possible.

We hope you will share Lenin's story with your family and friends who may have a heart for supporting such children. Your kindness can help more children like Lenin experience the joy of a transformed life. Thank you for spreading hope and making a difference.

With gratitude,

Sowmya
