Good Food

Do you worry about where your next meal will come from?  

Most of us in the United States may worry about whether or not we have the ingredients on hand to make a meal, but we rarely worry that we won't get to eat.  

That's not the case for many children living in poverty in India:

• 42% of children under the age of 5 are underweight.
• 58% of children under 5 were stunted.

Starvation and malnutrition keep children trapped in the cycle of poverty.  

That's why nutritious meals are a key component of both the Special Needs Orphan Project, and the Career Pathways Project.  

Good food is fuel for the brain!  

These children deserve every opportunity to grow strong and achieve their dreams.

She Recovered!

She recovered from near death...

Just over 2 years ago, a sweet girl who we'll call "P", was found on the side of the road in Kolkata.  She had been abandoned, was emaciated beyond imagination, near death, and couldn't speak or walk on her own.

That's when our amazing donors intervened.  

Because of their generous support, a safe place was available for P to recover.  It took doctors, nurses, nutritious foods, physical and speech therapy, special education, and the love and skill of trained caregivers to slowly bring her back to life.

P has now blossomed into her true self.

No longer starving and emaciated, immobile, or silent, she speaks to everyone and runs and plays like other little girls her age. 

The icing on the cake is that P will soon have the love of a family.

The cycle of poverty has been broken and her future is bright!
