RELIEF WORK The 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami affected the area of Andrah Pradesh badly. Some of the small fishing villages in
Andhra Pradesh were devastated, and a team from the Children’s Home began
immediately to take food, clothing and medical supplies there on a regular
basis. Many people lost not only
their houses, but also everything they owned, including the fishing boats,
which they need to earn their living.
GTWF paid for rice, blankets and clothing until the village managed to
get back on its feet. The charity was also able to send money out to
Timothy Babu and his team to help a Leper Colony which is just a few miles
away from Grace Children’s Home. This
work is now an integral part of the charities work, and money is sent out
regularly to buy rice, etc for the Leper Colony. . |
