Thank you for feeding hungry school children in India's poorest villages. Your gift provides a starving child with a healthy meal. You are helping to feed 200 children with a school meal.
Many children in the villages come from poor families, and their parents are unable to feed them or send them to school. When they come to school, they are starving and weak. This is a challenge and makes it very hard to focus in class. Sometimes the children skip school and work in the fields to earn some money instead of attending classes.
But your gift feeds children like Mahitha with a nutritious school meal every day.
Mahitha grew up in a troubled household. Her mother died because of cancer and her father is an alcoholic, who doesn't work to support the family. Since Mahitha wasn't getting good care, she went to live with her grandmother. Her grandmother took care of her but she was too poor to give Mahitha her most basic needs sometimes. She didn't have enough money to send her to school and she couldn't afford to always feed her.
When they found that the nearby India Partners school offers children a free lunch and an education, both Mahitha and her grandmother were overjoyed. Mahitha gets a chance to attend school every day and she also gets one healthy meal a day. You are nourishing and feeding this little girl with much needed food and knowledge.
Thank you for your support. You are feeding children like Mahitha with a hearty and nutritious meal.
Sincerely,
John Sparks
