In the past two months, the Yashodhara family has grown visibly larger. The last two newcomers are Pragati and Pallavi, 12 and 10 respectively. Two days after their arrival, they were already attending the local school.
Pragati and Pallavi used to live with their mother, blind in one eye, who worked in a telephone shop that was shut down by the police. Widowed since the girls were very young, her income suddenly stopped and the possibility of providing for her family was drastically reduced due to her impairment. The family lived on their neighbors’ charity, but the mother did not want her daughters to stop going to school. She contacted Asha-Kiran through an acquaintance; our social workers quickly came to visit them and started the necessary admission procedures.
Both mother and daughters are very grateful for the opportunity given to them. We will make our best effort to exceed their expectations.
