Namaste
Respected donors, friends, and well-wishers of “Little HEARTS Orphanage” of Nellore District of Andhra Pradesh State of India. I am once again glad to be with you through this GG Quarterly report.
After spending summer vacation with their relatives and friends all of our boys and girls came back to school and colleges. All the government schools and colleges re-opened on 15th June 2016. Academic year began on 15th June. This year we have given admission to 6 new girls who lost mothers/fathers due to different reasons.
Jaya, Executive Director of The River Fund expressed her interest about girl child education. By keeping her interest we have given admission to 6 new girls from remote villages of Nellore District. Our boys and girls in “little HEARTS orphanage” studying well to achieve their goals.
On 8th July Ms. Jessica from The River Fund, USA spent a day with children and took them to the Millennium Children’s Park and after playing took them to have Ice Cream Parlour. Children enjoyed a lot by playing with Ms. Jessica Martin.
My wife and I went to Vijayawada to book Long, short, ruled, double ruled, check ruled note books, Pens, Pencils, Sharpeners, Writing Pads, Brown covers, Stickers Chalk Piece, Slate Pencil boxes and School Bags etc., altogether 27 items for Rs.54,810 for whole year. Books etc. arrived in bundles. School Bags are yet to come. In 25 years of my marriage it was the first time to travel with her!
I am happy to inform you that Mr. Noor a local man made a phone call to me and asked about the immediate needs of the children to buy. Last year also the same person donated money to buy immediate needs of the children like blankets, towels etc. This year also he came forward to do the same for the welfare of the children.
As usual 2 tutors are regularly coming to help and teach Math and English subjects.
Every year August 15th we celebrate Flag hosting in respect of Independence Day of India. We salute Indian Flag. India Flag hosting done by Mr. Prakasha, a retired Senior Auditor who is our chief guest.
