My Story

Tamil’s father severely neglected her for being a girl. She was left alone to watch over her mother, who was suffering with a mental disability, while her father refused to accept Tamil as his own and withheld resources from her. Knowing Tamil was unable to care for herself and her mother, her grandmother took her in and tried her best to care for her sufficiently. But, unfortunately, due to old age, Tamil’s grandmother was also unable to care for her.

Another concerned family member reached out to our social workers who intervened on Tamil’s behalf and rescued her. Your sponsorship ensures Tamil is enrolled in a good school and receiving an education! It also provides her with nutritious food and ongoing counseling support from our social workers who are teaching her the value of being a girl!
