We wanted to introduce you to our new family member- Jayachitra. She comes to us from an organization called Rising Star Outreach. She is 5 years old and is a "girly-girl" and loves jewelry. We are so excited to be sponsoring this little girl and to be a part of such a wonderful organization. This was our family Christmas present to each other this year. Each of us will be contributing money every month to come up with the $30 it costs to sponsor Jayachitra. Who knows...maybe we will meet her some day!
Rising Star has three major initiatives concerning Leporsy:
- to educate the colony children in a safe, healthy environment
- to provide leprosy patients with their own small businesses using micro-finance
- to address the unique health challenges of the colonies with mobile medical units
