sponsor a child in india - Dheeraj

Dheeraj
"I need a sponsor!"


 Dheeraj is a charming 17 year old boy since Aug. 06 with us. He has Down syndrome and Hepatitis-B with speech difficulties. He loves dancing, choreographs his own steps, learns to copy immediately having seen any steps. He is the disco dancer of Snehalaya. His favorite passtime is eating and talking on imaginary mobile phone. He is hard working and keen to help his carer parents in looking after the children in the cottage 7 where he lives with them.

Sponsor A Child In India

Your support can change a childs life!



 Little breaks a heart faster than a child's smile. It may be a smile of anticipation...a smile of pure joy...a smile of longing ... a smile that says "thank you" (’Dhan’yavada ’ in Hindi ) that means much more than words in any language.


 In "Snehalaya" there are more than 63 (the number grows daily) smiling faces. These are the children that have escaped the hard, menial, and monotonous future of living on the streets of India...and have come to a place where they are treated with dignity and all their needs are met.


 "Snehalaya", meaning "the home with love" in Hindi, is a care home for disabled children, homeless women and the aged, where they live together as a family in individual cottages, with aims to help make them independent and live with dignity.




 It is our aim for Snehalaya to become completely self sufficient. We have drilled bore holes to provide fresh drinking water, cultivated 15 acres of land and we rear dairy cows and poultry to provide food. We are making good progress but we are a long way off from being 100% self-sufficient, with electricity production being our biggest and most costly hurdle.

 

 



 The Gwalior Children's Charity does not receive any government support from India, despite operating in one of it's poorest and most needy areas. Because of this we rely solely on donations from around the world.
