Latest Letter from Our India Orphanage

From the day that MAP started supporting our Assist Orphanage Home for Girls, our children’s lives have completely changed for the better. Previously we were struggling to care for 39 children and every day we worried about their future. When Map started supporting our home, not only did the life of these 39 children absolutely transform into their dream life, but we had the means to rescue and give a home to an additional 11 orphan children! Now our family has grown to 50 children ranging from ages 8 months old to 22 years old. MAP has given our children the opportunity to have the best education and to live the most comfortable life and for that we are eternally grateful to them. Two of the newest children we rescued this year were Laxmi and her younger brother Kameswar. We had read in the national newspaper that two young children had become orphans and were living in the worst of conditions so with the support of MAP and their funding we managed to travel the 500km to locate these children and bring them both back safely to Rayagada. It has been 4 months now that Kameswar and Laxmi are in our custody and live with us in our orphanage home in Rayagada. We have been able to purchase them every thing that they have ever wanted and from this schooling year onwards, they will be joined in one of the best schools in Rayagada. Their health is on the mend and every day they are learning and seeing things that they had never seen before. These two children went from living in a shed in a tribal village, with no food and absolutely no belongings to a life filled with hope, love and such a bright future ahead of them, all of this possible because of MAP. Thank you MAP for being the family that we have always dreamed of having, because of you a whole generation of children have become inspired to live their lives as productivity as possible and to give back to the world. We love you so much and are so thankful to have you in our lives.
