Veeraraju is a 65 year old widow from the village of Pithapuram in Andhra Pradesh, India. Her husband, Apparao, died seven years ago from a heart attack. She has three sons and one daughter. Veeraraju is a general laborer and earns about $2 a day, but she could not go to work for months because of defective vision in both eyes. She had no money for a visit to the hospital and became very depressed.
At that time, she came to learn about the Sankurathri Foundation and contact them. Sankurathri officials were aware of her economic condition and were able to give her a pair of glasses free of charge because of your donations.
Thank you for your kindness, Robin, Prasad, and Margot. With your help, Veeraraju can look after herself and live with dignity in her old age.
