Dear friend,
Your gift is doing so much good in the lives of hungry school children in India. Thank you for feeding them with a nutritious meal every day. Your gift is 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. Often times the children skip school and work in the fields to earn some money instead of attending classes. They are so desperate for food, some children even beg on the streets for food.
Mahesh is a child who was helped because of your generous support. His father died so his mother had to work to support the family. But she was chronically ill and was unable to provide the family with a steady income. Many times that meant not being able to buy food for the day.
Mahesh did get a chance to go to school. However, he would come to school without a lunch box. He was starving. Many times he couldn’t make it to class because he was so hungry for something to eat.
Today, because of your gift Mahesh is able to attend school regularly. The school started to provide him with a healthy school lunch every day. He is very active in the classroom, and teachers noticed how much more engaged he is when he is able to eat a meal every day. He is so happy that he gets to learn and have food that will provide him with the energy he needs.
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
John Sparks
