Liberty Children's
Home is a UK charity that supports the work of an Indian
charity registered with the name Abundant Life Ministries, led
by Pastor Hezekiah. Part of this Indian charity is a
children's home called the Liberty Children's Home and Student
Hostel, which can best be described as a large foster
home rather than an orphanage. There are some children without
parents, others who have one parent and a few who have both
parents. The Children's Home is in the village of
Chintalapudi, Andhra Pradesh, India. After renting buildings
for the children for 6 years, a permanent Home was built in
2007.
At
the start of 2011 the Children's Home and Hostel were
accommodating 37 boys, 6 girls and 1 student. Our UK
charity provides funds to provide each of these children with
secure accommodation, 3 meals each day, clothes, medical
treatment and notebooks, pens, pencils, etc. to enable them to
attend the village government schools.
Aware of the financial
vulnerability of overseas projects and the ever increasing
demands on UK charity givers, our charity has been working
with Pastor Hezekiah to develope a self-support project in the
form of a water buffalo dairy farm. This is progressing well
and it is hoped that it will produce sufficient income to
provide for all of the current number of children, within 18
months.
If
you would like to know more about Liberty Children's Home and
Student Hostel, just click on "Find out more". You will
not be confronted with photos of sad children dressed in
ragged clothes. The children at the Liberty Home, although
many with sad lives, are well fed, well dressed and
happy, because they now have a hope and a
future.
If you
decide to visit the other areas of our site, we hope
that it brings some joy into your day and maybe, when there is
so much bad news in the media, help you believe that there are
still many good things happening in the world
today. |
