Little Singham (an animated kids series).
From the moment Dathri was born, she brought disappointment to her father and grandmother. Believing that young girls are a burden to families, Dathri’s father showed his disappointment through physical abuse and harsh neglect.
Dathri spent her days helping with household chores because she wasn’t allowed to go to school. Dathri’s father wanted her to be married so the physical and financial responsibilities of caring for her would no longer fall on him. Unfortunately, Dathri’s mother had little to no say in how Dathri is cared for by her father.
Your sponsorship allows Dathri to go to school and live in a safe home where she is protected from neglect, physical abuse, and illegal child marriage. She is safe, has access to nutritious food and education, and most importantly, she is being told truth: she is loved, she is valuable, she is worthy!
