How you can help
Our hostel houses twenty two boys who are provided with plenty of nutritious food, schooling and tutoring, endless amounts of love, support and friendship, and of course fields to play cricket in! We also provide in-home support for many orphan girls to live with their extended families other loved ones.

How important is this project?

It responds to: Having identified over 80 orphaned or abandoned children in our greater region.
Target population:
Children age 6+ from 14 villages up to 100km from Bakrour.
Expected number of beneficiaries:
Currently 22 children, with goals for expansion.
Expenditure:
20% of NPWT funds.


Key results delivered so far

  • Shelter and care provided to 30 children
  • Children's evolution from traumatised, disfunctional behaviour, to happy and healthy
  • Children have received education and often performed well above average as students
  • Upon purchasing a cow, we now have a sustainable source of milk for orphans, and a chance to teaching them about animal care 


Project goals

We hope these children will grow up to be happy, healthy young men and women. Ultimately, they may play a part in the future of Niranjana's work, as it seems that many, after living in such a giving environment, already aspire to be teachers and doctors in poor communities when they grow up.
