Here are some of our Street Children, yes all girls, who need your help. We give you a little of their individual stories, but each and every one has a much bigger story to tell. Living with Grandmother in the West is probably a child's dream, grandmother will spoil our children ...
`rotten`, but in India it is very difficult, and often these children have no
Grandparents and grandparent's often cannot support even themselves, so an extra mouth causes BIG problems and to survive many of these children have to beg to survive themselves - at their young age, is this right ? Can we help these few who have been rescued, to start a really new life, changing their future for ever ?

These are just some of the girls we would like to help ; they have no close friends other than the Sisters who look after them and the other children. All have been plucked from obscurity, truly, if the project had not been established these girls would still be wandering the streets - have a look at them, would you like to see any one go back to their past
life ?
