300,000
children live on the streets in Bombay. By the
time they are 8-9 years old many are totally out
of control and destined for a life of crime, sexual
abuse & prostitution. Most of the children beg
- but pass the money to someone for whom they
are just a slave.
A small boy lay on the floor drinking milk from
the teat of a dog! That was the picture in an
Indian daily newspaper. The caption read " This
dog is his mother". Moved by this, our friends
Biju & Secu Thampy want to go and help these needy
children in Bombay.
Initially we are going to partner with them and
start a feeding programme. For just £3/month
we can provide a homeless child with a cooked
meal every day! We want to initially feed a thousand
children a day. We will put Christian workers
with the children and eventually plan to provide
homes.
