PORTRAIT Gloria di Ashaneer Home In Charge Gloria has been working for HSP for 16 years. After being In Charge of EPN and Lalkuthi homes, she is now in charge of Ashaneer. She is very devoted to the children. She decided to give her life for them saying "It is a vocation for me, not a job". She pays a lot of attention to every child, especially those who have bad moments, and spends long moments speaking to every one to cheer them up. We are very honored to have her among us. She always laughs and keeps happiness in the home. Children are in good care with Gloria. Thank you didi ! NB: It tooks us ages to take a picture of her because she is very shy and humble and does not like to stand out. |

...Funds for Ashaneer ! HSP is looking for donations in order to install special roof for Ashaneer buildings. As you may know, heatwaves are striking all over India and it will get worse every year. Unfortunately buildings are made of cement and bricks wich capture sun lights and spread the heat by night which make the rooms stay hot 24h. It is becoming very complicated for the children to sleep well. Thus we are looking for donations to have these installations. The costs will be 8000 € (650 000 Rs.) |
