Dear Indu, KOWSILLIYA, Anil, Thomas, David, Ron, Craig, and Tom,

Annammal studies in grade two in a school run by Isha Vidhya in Tamil Nadu. She has two younger sisters. Her father is a farmer and her mother is a housewife. The financial situation of the family is such that Annammal barely gets to eat one proper meal in a day. The meals that she is fed are lacking in essential nutrients, because of which she is undernourished.

Your donations, Kowsilliya, Anil, Thomas, and David, of three months of school lunches each, will ensure that Annammal is fed one wholesome meal a day in school everyday for an entire school year. Proper nutrition will also ensure that she is less susceptible to illnesses, and can concentrate better on her studies.

Annammal enjoys reading and art. Your generous support, Kowsilliya, Anil, Thomas, and David, will go a long way in keeping her healthy and in ensuring that she gets a good education.

Public transportation is virtually non-existent in the area, making it almost impossible for Jeevitha’s parents to send her to school. Isha Vidhya, therefore, provides transportation to get her to school.

Your generous donation, Ron, Craig, Thomas and Tom, will enable Isha Vidhya to provide a year of transportation for Jeevitha, thereby ensuring that she attends school everyday. She loves attending school and excels in singing and drawing.

Your generous donation of a set of two school uniforms, Indu, is much appreciated by Annammal. She comes from a family of modest means, and for her to get brand new clothes is a cause for celebration. She keeps her uniforms neat and tidy, and is very thankful to you for making it possible for her to have them.

Your generosity will go a long way in ensuring that Annammal is able to fight for a better future.
