Vikky is a 10 year old boy living in Tamil Nadu, India. Vikky is one of three siblings and his father barely makes enough income to support the family. Vikky’s mother is a housewife with a severe medical condition and cannot work. Vikky is a bright student, but needed additional support to afford materials and transportation for school.
Isha supports children like Vikky to further their education. Without your support, Suraj and Ashwin, this organization would not have been able to help this child in need. Isha supplies Vikky with not only education, but transportation to and from school, two uniforms, and daily lunches.
Because Vikky’s parents struggle to provide basic necessities for the family, the nutritional lunch Vikky receives from Isha is often the only meal he will eat during the day. This provides Vikky with incentive to attend school regularly and further his education for a brighter future.
Thank you, Suraj and Ashwin, for supporting Vikky and his hopes to succeed. He is happy to be able to attend school this year thanks to your generous donation toward Isha.
