Once again, 9 more children including seven girls need to be rescued from Mercy Home to prevent them being from the probability of being abused/neglected. Fareen is one of them. 

  The nine are new. They (Ram Pyari, Soni, Pooja, Shahnaz, Nikita, Reshmi, Fareen, Raju & Ishu) are all in the age group of 7 to 14. years. (Only Fareen is a healthy, active 8 year-old -- while others are mentally challenged with speech difficulties & 65 to 85% disabilities) 

  We thought that we had transferred all girls from the Mercy Home to Snehalaya. 

  Morally and emotionally, to prevent neglect and abuse (particularly to the 7 girls) I am under pressure  to transfer these children. I have no money or sponsors to pay for their upkeep or education..( only 39 of the 63 children we have at present are sponsored). 

  Honestly speaking, I do not know what to do, except  to ask you once again – to contribue by sponsoring more  children, finding more sponsors/supporters/fundraisers among your friends, family and colleagues. Please consider contributing now itself while on line using secure link through donate button on our web site www.helpchildrenofindia.org

 
 A few suggestions that have been made --

 Shared sponsorship: Why not get together with your colleagues and friends to share an extra sponsorship?  Just £20 or US$ 40 or Rs.1500 or equivalent in your currency will give a new life to a disabled child in India. These are also popular with schools – because the whole class can contribute and, at the same time, learn about life in a different part of the world.
