Namaste everybody,
Hope you and your family are well
Here are a couple of stories highlighting our work,
Sanwi (20 days)
In a town, some 30Km away from the centre a 20-day old baby was thrown away near a riverbank. Found fortuitously by a member of the public she informed the local police who brought her to Rescue Junction for care and protection.
Per the norms and laws this little girl will be offered for adoption. (By an Indian family).
Soni Kumari (14)
Soni has had a difficult life. When her mother died when she was young, her father remarried only to constantly fight with his new wife and eventually she committed suicide by drinking poison. Soni went to live with her grandmother could not afford to keep her so she ended up with her aunty in anther village. Throughout all this she managed to educate herself up to class seven. She became friendly with a local boy and together they ran away to seek a better life together and were removed from a running train by the government railway police. Rescue Junction staff are working with her to decide the best option for her welfare and wellbeing.
We have changed the names and removed any information which might identify the children involved.
Thank you so much for your wonderfull support,
Gopa ,and all the staff and children at Recue Junction
