Ranjana is no longer chronicly sick

Twelve-year old Ranjana is the second of her parents’ four children. She and two of her siblings are mentally challenged and have very low IQs. Despite this, Ranjana studies in the 5th standard in a mainstream school and tries hard to please her teachers by working diligently and never missing a day of school. Her father works in a sweetmeat shop, and struggles to provide for his children with special needs on his meager income.

For the past few years, Ranjana has been a student of the Ashraya Initiative for Children’s Education Outreach Program, which offers her educational support in many forms – tutoring, transportation, school supplies, and, perhaps most importantly, daily meals. Prior to joining the AIC Education Outreach Program, Ranjana had suffered from various health problems and had been hospitalized for a few different surgeries. She was chronically underweight, but is much healthier now that she is receiving nutritious daily meals from the AIC Education Centre before and after school.

Your gift of a month of meals each, Gillian (x4), Meredith, Chris (x2), Erik, James and Julie (x2) and Jeffrey (x2), will ensure that Ranjana continues to receive three balanced meals a day for an entire year. The meals include chapati (flat bread), bhaji (cooked vegetables), boiled eggs, fresh seasonal fruit, yogurt and several other items. Ranjana’s parents, credit their daughter’s improved health and steady weight gain to the meals that she has been receiving and will continue to receive at AIC.

Thank you, Gillian, Meredith, Chris, Erik, James and Julie, and Jeffrey, for coming together to ensure that Ranjana continues to enjoy good health.
