Little Jayapriya can attend school and stay healthy!

Seven year old Jayapriya comes from a small village in Tamil Nadu. Her father runs a small-scale grocery shop, along the pavement and barely earns enough to support the needs of his family. Jayapriya’s mother also helps her father, in the shop. Together, they earn a meager sum of Rs, 1,500 ($34) a month, with which they have to provide for their two children, food and educational needs.

Despite their poor economic condition, the parents were very keen on getting their children educated and have enrolled both the children at Isha Vidhya School. Jayapriya is currently studying in grade 3 while her little brother is studying in grade 1, in the same school.

Due to inadequate nutrition, Jayapriya was anemic and malnourished and could not concentrate on her studies. Your donations, Sanjay, Mark and Lynn and Michael (x2) will enable Isha Vidhya to provide a year of nutritious lunches to Jayapriya, thereby ensuring that she remains healthy and safe from illness.

In the village that they live in, public transportation is very unreliable and almost non-existent, making it difficult for Jayapriya and her brother to attend school. Her parents struggle to get their children to school each day, and many a times, they miss school because of no proper mode of transportation.

Your generous donations, Fleming, Lee, Luke and Ani and Marc will enable Isha Vidhya to provide a year of transportation for Jayapriya, thereby ensuring that she attends school everyday.

Thank you all, for ensuring that Jayapriya’s stomach is full, and she is able to attend school regularly. Your support comes as a big relief to her parents!
