The choice of the kind of food to order in a restaurant or the school to send our child to is pretty straightforward. And yet, we see ourselves labouring over these decisions. Now consider the case where your decision was a matter of life or death. That’s the dilemma of parents who struggle to provide three meals a day for their family. If sending their child for work would ensure that the child stays free from hunger, their choice would be to sustain the child. The choice of sending the child to school would mean, years of waiting in hunger and desperation with the hope that someday they’ll pass these hard days into a prosperous life. Parents who live in the fringes of the society cannot afford the luxury of ‘waiting’ and want their children to fend for themselves from the tender ages of five, six etc. The fingers that point towards them in judgement do not see the helplessness they are facing but only the cruelty and pain these parents are inflicting on their own children.
Who wouldn’t want their children to have a childhood full of happiness, learning, fun and entertainment? No parent would wish misery upon their child but their plight forces them to take away the childhood every child rightfully deserves. Together, we can help these parents to gift future to their children.
We could change a lot of lives through our shelters & Coomunity Centres by educating hundreds of children and we are still continuing the good work. Every year, the children in need are rising and we are extending our hands to our capacities. Thank you so supporting the children to get educated.
