Dear Donors, Friends and Well-wishers of "little HEARTS orphanage" all over the world,
Greetings to you all from "little HEARTS orphanage" of Nellore District of Andhra Pradesh State of India. We hope you are all well in health and wealth!
Recently, Mr. R from USA visited LHO and spent some time and asked few questions about children and their welfare.. Through GG he donated some money to LHO. He also promised in the near future he will do more for LHO through GG.
All the children at LHO doing well physically and mentally. This is final examinations period all over Andhra Pradesh State. All the children from 1st class to Intermediate are very busy in studies at LHO. They are studying very well and working more hours on studies to get good marks and ranks. As I told in my previous GG Quarterly Reports, after food and accommodation education is the most important to every child for bright future.
After food we are spending more money on education materials, tuition fee for Xth and Intermediate students. The Xth class children must pass examinations to go to college (Intermediate). At LHO 5 children including one girl appearing for Xth class final examinations which starts from 21st March to 2nd April. We hope they all will get very good marks and ranks to join college.
Anil who is studying IInd year Intermediate did all the examinations well so for. Today is the last examination for him. Like Ramu, Anil is also interested to join and study Civil Engineering. To send him to Engineering College from this year we need more financial support along with Ramu who successfully completed IIIrd year. He is having only one year to complete his Civil Engineering studies who is studying at Priyadarshini Engineering College, Nellore.
Padma is now studying first year B.Sc. Nursing at St. Joseph’s Nursing College which near to LHO. Tomorrow my wife and I are going to visit her. Every Second Sunday of every month they will be given permission to go outing. Yesterday Padma made a phone call from her college office land line and reminded me about fee. I also spoke with the office staff and enquired about the fee and told them on Monday I will be coming to pay college fee in instalments. We should pay Rs.36,000 each year. Like this we should pay for 3 years. We have already paid Rs.16,000 for Padma. Rest of the fee should be paid by us before this August for 1st year.
The rest of the children are studying from 1st class to IXth class. 3 tutors are regularly attending for every evening to help children homework and teach all the subjects. Every Sunday evening all the children will go to nearby Police Parade Grounds to play. They play from 3PM to 6PM. Local people donate Food and Biscuits at least once or twice in a month by celebrating their little ones Birthdays. Three full time and three part time staff are working for lower salaries. When compared with other institutions we are paying less salary. Our staff is demanding for raise in their salaries. I promised them that we will raise salaries from next academic year which starts in the month of June of 2016.
Beloved donors please donate more to meet the regular expenditure in addition to salaries of staff.
Kind regards
C.P.Kumar
