Relief for the parents of Anaparthi

Anaparthi Namyasri
Dear Keshav Harini,

Anaparthi is nine years old and a third grader at Sarada Vidyalayam, a school run by the Sankurathri Foundation in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, India. She is the second child of Prasad and Kusuma. Her father works in sanitation and earns about $60 a month while her mother is housewife. The combined efforts of Anaparthi’s parents do not generate enough income to support the education of her elder brother or herself.

Under such circumstances, education is never a priority. Many boys and girls in rural areas such as this become child laborers to help supplement the family’s income. Unfortunately, this leads many to drop out of school. Sarada Vidyalayam is helping such children complete their education without any financial burden to their parents. The school provides not only free education, but also provides free books, uniforms, school bags, a pair of sandals, transportation, nutritious lunch, milk, medical check ups, and medicine to all the children. The school maintains a very strict curriculum, provides quality education and imparts good discipline and values to groom them as good citizens.

With your assistance, Keshav Harini, the Sankurathri Foundation has given a set of two uniforms to Anaparthi so she can attend school.

Thank you for your kindness!
