Dear donors,

Greetings from Bangalore Baptist Hospital Society.

Witness the extraordinary journey of Sathvik as he gracefully moves to the rhythm of the music. From defying medical predictions to showcasing his incredible talents, Sathvik has shattered all expectations and proven that limitations are mere illusions.

In 2019, Sathvik joined our centre - District Disability Rehabilitation Centre, where we witnessed his remarkable progress. He has embraced inclusivity and flourished in our supportive environment, overcoming initial hesitations.

His mother, inspired by his journey, enrolled as a special educator in 2020, determined to help her son and make a difference in the lives of other children. Sathvik has become the shining star of our events, captivating audiences with his natural rhythm and infectious energy.

Beyond his incredible dancing skills, Sathvik possesses a caring soul. He takes it upon himself to carry and comfort the younger children at the centre, offering therapeutic support and displaying an exceptional understanding of others.

His love for nature is evident as well. Sathvik nurtures and tends to plants with utmost dedication, showcasing his deep appreciation for the world around him.

Sathvik's mother reflects on their journey with pride and optimism, stating, "I never imagined Sathvik would progress to such heights. His achievements bring immense joy to my heart. To all mothers, I urge you to always focus on the interests of your children. With love and support, they can achieve incredible things." 

Now, let us introduce you to Lavanya, whose days used to pass by at a snail's pace. Affected by polio since birth, she remained confined to the four walls of her home. Her husband would leave for work early in the morning, returning only for dinner.

However, Lavanya expressed her desire to resurrect the small convenience store her family had established years ago. With financial constraints hindering their progress, our dedicated team visited Lavanya and assessed her situation. We extended a loan of Rs.10,000 (US$ 120) to help her purchase fresh stock for her shop.

Lavanya's face radiates joy today as customers flock to her store for daily provisions. The community trusts her commitment to sourcing reliable products, and her business thrives. "Now the days fly by, and I find myself racing against time," exclaims Lavanya, embracing the newfound momentum in her life.

The transformative impact you have brought to the lives of both Sathvik and Lavanya is genuinely remarkable. We express our heartfelt gratitude for your support and look forward to your continued partnership in making a positive difference.

 

Gratefully,

Carol
