Pydaiah can see better!

Agitolu Pydaiah, M-60
Dear Elizabeth,

Sixty year old Pydaiah, is a fisherman by profession. He hails from the village of Biccavolu, in coastal Andhra Pradesh. He has four children, all of whom live separately with their families and he lives with his wife.

He works to earn and support their needs. He barely earns about $3-5 each day, which just about suffices to meet their most basic needs.

Lately, his vision had started diminishing and he was not able to hook the bait or fish, properly. He knew his vision was becoming blurry and this needed to be examined.

After a complete eye-examination, it was proved that he needed corrective glasses. But with not enough money saved for such medical emergencies, he could not afford  apair of glasses, right away.

Your generous donation, Elizabeth, enabled Sankurathri Foundation to provide a pair of corrective glasses to Pydaiah, with which he can now see clearly.

Thank you, Elizabeth, for this thoughtful gift!
