DESIRE Society Report [ Feb 2015]
Within a span of one year , four HIV children were enrolled and given shelter at Hyderabad Care Home, IDA Bollaram . It has touched the number to 70 at present at Hyderabad Care Home level.
Out of four children, the youngest HIV girl [ Deepika , 3 ½ yrs ] was admitted few months back. With loss of both parents due to HIV disease , she was left to mercy of her maternal uncle. Her younger brother , a negative child , had a place to live in their house. But HIV stigma has a role to play for such children making it vulnerable to survive.
With deteriorating health condition , she was brought to DESIRE Society. “ Dr Divya “ a private practitioner who knows about our work gave chance for her to survive and get her enrolled with us.
Now she has recovered due to proper food and medication in time . She sits in campus schooling with pleasure of learning.Hope GLOBAL GIVING support generated gives favor for such HIV children to have extended life span.
