Balu is the only boy out of three children in his family. His two older sisters, Sindhu and Sailaja, are also boarders. His father is a coolie and fruit seller but, due to poor health, does not contribute much to the care of the family. His mother also works as a coolie, doing her best to support the family. Balu is good at playing kabaddi and chess, as well as running. He is also diligent in his studies.
We are excited to announce that the building fundraising phase of St Anne Junior College for Girls in India is completed! We are now gearing up to furnish the building and purchase the school supplies needed in preparation for the arrival of the girls in June. This means we are in the final fundraising phase before opening and we need your help! Your gift today will help us to provide girls from impoverished families with a quality education and care.
