Dear donors and friends, A few days ago I wrote an email asking help for two sisters studying nursing in Guntur, AP. Immediately came a reply from Dr Uma Iyer, one of our new donors who read about our project on our website a year ago and contacted me. Today I got a check for $300. Thanks to Dr Uma for her generosity. If anyone is interested to help with the rest of the money, please come forward. With regards Ben Kaila ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ An educated man without character and humility was more dangerous than a beast.

Those who is willing to help may come forward. Two sisters whose father died of Aid are studying Nursing in Guntur. Their monther was a causual labor and depends on the daily wages of her other daughter, her mother, and herself. The elder one was assisted by me for the past 3 years and completed her course. She is still looking for a job. The younger one was in the last year. She has been assisted by one of our donors for the past 2 years. Now, someone has to help her to pay her annual fee of around Rs.12,000 - Rs.15,000. I tought of helping her, but due to some financial decisions I had taken lately, my financial resources are almost drained out. I can not as generous as before, but I try my best to accommodate where ever I can. It is a part of my mission. So, now I am appealing to someone who can her this girl to finish her Nursing course. In addition, her sister needs around Rs.5,000 for her settlement of accounts in her institute, I was told. If anyone is willing to her, please come forward. I will send all the bills from the institute to the donors as soon as I receive them. So, here are the requirements: 1. Elder sister needs: Rs.5,000 2. Younger sister needs: Rs.12,000 - Rs.15,000 Since I have been helping them for the part 3 years, communication with them is not an issue (as it was before with some of the beneficiaries). If the donor wants, he/she can talk to them to understand their requirement. So, please come forward to help these sisters. With little more help, they will come out of poverty and may help thier other family members (especially the hardworking mother and grandmother) and others in their community. My wife, when she went to India last year met them and very much impressed with them. Anticipating some possitive outcome.
