Five Little Donors



Five little children from Guraja school in Vizianagaram have donated the equivalent of 12 pounds to Brighter Future. It doesn't sound much to us but for these children it is a lot. They saved up the money from their pocket money.

More important is their response to hearing about the children of DMC House. Children from leprosy colonies and railway platforms. The kind of children that they see begging on the streets and at stations.

The young people had  heard about our organisation from Mr Raju. He visited their school and told the children about Brighter Future's work. Their parents were also motivated by their children's concern and allowed them to come to DMC House to meet our children.

Navya Sri (12 yrs old), Sarvani  (10), Thanuja (13), Vidya (9) and Ruchisha (13) save up the 1214 rupees  from their pocket money .
 and they bought
1  (25kg) bag of rice                                           850rp
2 packets of salt                                                   24rp
2 litres of cooking oil                                          160rp
and ball point pens and sweets for the children    180rp

 (The 88 children at DMC House and the Rainbow home eat 25kg of rice a day).
