Project Report | May 26, 2016
"I remember scooping out the earth"

By Naresh Sir and Pritya | Director of Education and student People First

New school stuff!
New school stuff!

Hello everyone,

Greetings from a hot and dry Bihar, it’s time for an update!

This update is translated from Hindi and is written by one of the girls we have provided an education and a home in Rescue Junction.  Pritya (name changed) sister is doing very well in higher education under this scheme so we welcome your support for her and girls like her, and once she qualifies we will include her story also in a future report.

Your donation really changes lives and may I remind you that you on June 15th your donation will be matched by a 50% bonus from Global Giving. So please kindly make a note of that day.

Here is what Pritya wrote for you,

“I was very small when my father died. I can’t remember very much but I remember helping my big sister scoop out earth to bury my father. I can remember being hungry, so very hungry. I remember some police with us, and I remember coming to rescue junction and enjoying a good meal.

That was many years ago, now I am older and I have so much to be thankful for.  I came here with my sisters (one younger and one older) my big sister did so much to look after us, and as we have no family who can take care of us Rescue Junction staff told us not to worry they would take care of us as long as we needed help and support.

And they kept their promise to us providing education care and love for all these years. My older sister is now away at college under a scholarship for higher education paid for by People First, her qualifications will mean good future for her and all of us, thank you so much for helping us.”

With thanks to you all,

Naresh
