The children were sent to Matriculation school for education. It has now grown to twenty children. Situated in Redhills occupying an area of 1 acre land which was purchased by us in the year 2007. We also run a school there for these children.
About the children
All the children are from Tamilnadu and belong to various social backgrounds. They are 2- 14 years old. Most of them are orphans and some have single parent or guardian.We also have children from gypsy tribe who love to sing and dance. They came here with no knowledge of English but now they can speak English fluently. On their arrival they were scared and felt insecure but now, they have no fears and are happy.
