Project Description
This project is a home for disadvantaged girl children. The project takes care of the boarding and education of these children via Asha's Support a Child program. It has been supported by Asha Austin since 2003. The needs of food, clothing, shelter and education of the children has been taken care of. The aim is to nurture these children so that they grow up as pure simple human beings inculcating values of universal brotherhood and not only become responsible citizens of India, but also of the entire world. There are children in the age group of 3 to 18 years. Children learn music, are trained and engaged in maintaining their garden and household and are taught to be independent. Four children have completed their diploma in computer science, have taken good jobs and settled independently.
