It always seems impossible until its done – Nelson Mandela
Seetha belongs to the
most disadvantaged caste and class of the community. In addition, HIV has
affected leaving her mother widowed by HIV and younger sister with HIV. She has
an elder sister who was married early to support the family. Situation became
worse when she also started depending on her natal family for financial support.
Seetha, the second child in the family developed her dream to be a medical
professional as she was doing well in her studies. She had scored (more than
90%) in her 10th public exam, while in her 12th standard the
pressures of sharing the burden of care of her mother, sister and frequent
power cuts made her secure only around 70%.

At this point we thank
all our friends and well-wishers who have made a visit to Buds of Christ and
have spent time interacting with our children which is making a greater impact.
In recent months, we and our children were encouraged
with visits by Mr. Yugendra from Chennai, Ms
Margaret and Ms Melissa from Singapore International Foundation.
