Birsa Kumar's Story

My name is Birsa Kumar. My father used to ride a rickshaw. After he died we brothers became orphans. We were supported and cared for by my sister who was then 10 years old. We lived in a small shack by the roadside.

One day a charitable man had pity on me and took me to the Divine Onkar Mission Orphanage. Ever since then the Orphanage has been my guardian. Here my education, meals and general well being are taken care of very nicely. Now with your help I am having success in my life.

Thank you all very very much.

On a recent visit to the charity in India we asked the children to write about their backgrounds and how they came to the orphanage. Here are those stories, some of them are upsetting but you can feel the hope and excitment that they have for the future. Your continued donations help to provide a happy future for these childrens.
