Weʼve raised £3,055 to donate mattresses to an orphanage of 400 people
- Kerala, India
- Funded on Friday, 31st July 2015
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Myself and 2 friends recently visited an orphanage in Kerala, South India and we were shocked and deeply saddened by what we saw there. The orphanage houses 400 people aged between 1 and 103 years of age. Nearly half of this number are children and a quarter are mentally challenged with special needs. We were devastated to discover that all but 30 people sleep on a dirty, cold stone floor. The 30 who don't sleep on the floor, sleep on a cold, hard metal cot base without sheets or mats.

Thank you so much for helping us to reach our target!! Not only will we be able to donate the mattresses to these amazing people but we can also give them some sheets and pillows also. They really do have nothing and live a very hard life and to sleep comfortably will make such a difference to them Thank you, thank you, thank you!! With much love and appreciation Maya, Carly & Ros xxx
