Your impact is in action at a local park in Chennai, India, at a small cart adorned with colorful paper lanterns, manned by a couple who greet each customer with infectious smiles.
Though polio had left Das and Lakshmi unable to walk, their laughter and loving partnership radiates joy as they scoop popcorn and pour tea for their customers.
Your gifts provided the resources and mentoring they needed to start a small popcorn and tea stand. They even get invited to serve tea at private events like weddings! You gave them such fullfillment knowing that they could provide for their family through their own hard work. Thanks to the resources you provided and business coaching, Das and his wife had found a new sense of purpose and financial stability in their lives.
Thank you for giving generously so people with disabilities in India have a chance to provide for their families!
