My story

Leper patients live in very horrible conditions in their little huts all through the seasons. So the only way they chose to survive is by begging. With this situation in the family, they are unable to take care of their children. And top of that the society has kept them away from community living.Because leprosy believed to be a curse, many people have misconceptions and that lead them to exclude any person with leprosy with the fear that it will spread. Because of this reason there was no one who came up to help these children.

Shreyansh is supported by impact partner YWAM Lepra

What a day looks like: The morning begins with prayer and worship. Then the children have breakfast and get ready for school. After school there is an opportunity to play, then homework is done together, in the evening the children get a typical Indian dinner and they end the day with reading from the Bible and prayer. Project Information: Ramchand Saranu is the founder of the children's homes Sideras Children Home and Abundant Life Children Home.
