BALAJOTHI CENTRE FOR THE DISABLED
PROJECT : MID DAY MEALS FOR DISABLED CHILDREN
REPORT # 16999 DUE ON 17.7.2017
“Close to a billion people – one-eighth of the world’s population – still live in hunger. Each year 2 million children die through malnutrition. This is happening at a time when doctors in Britain are warning of the spread of obesity. We are eating too much while others starve.” Jonathan Sacks
“Most of our citizenry believes that hunger only affects people who are lazy or people who are just looking for a handout, people who don’t want to work, but, sadly, that is not true. Over one-third of our hungry people are innocent children who are members of households that simply cannot provide enough food or proper nutrition. And to think of the elderly suffering from malnutrition is just too hard for most of us. Unlike Third World nations, in our country the problem is not having too little – it is about not caring enough! Write your elected representatives and promote support for the hungry.” Erin Brokovich.
The above statements are so very apt in the present scheme of things. Balajothi is one of such institutions which needs societal support for its special children, who cannot fend for themselves. GlobalGiving is doing just that and how ! We cannot thank you enough for this wonderful support, THANK YOU GLOBALGIVING.
Balajothi individually thanks YOU, DONOR, who went out of your way to extend your helping hand. The amount of $ 7002 so far collected is being used to provide nutritional mid-day meals to our special children every day from Monday to Fridays. The children are healthy, happy and vibrant because of YOUR GIVING. Balajothi is just a drop in the ocean. There are millions of children around the world who need many more warm hearted people willing to support this noblest of noble causes !!
Expenditure for the quarter is as under :
April 2017 Rs.9425
May 2017 Rs.7165
June 2017 Rs.9590
Thank you GlobalGiving once again and wish you every success in all your endeavors for supporting the needy.
