Priya's #education has been sponsored for many years by #hopegardensindia enabling her to graduate with a BSc in Nursing! She has gone straight into a front line role. We're so proud of Priya & so grateful to her sponsors for giving her access to this vital career serving others.

Wow!
Amazing to catch up with our supporters and Vasthi and Gold to hear how our sewing programme is changing women’s lives.
We are so proud of the trainers, the pastors wives and our generous supporters who have made this initiative a success.
93 women have graduated from our sewing institute, 26 machines have been purchased so that young girls, widows and ladies with huge obstacles in their lives can earn their own income, be independent and feel proud of themselves.
8th March is an important day #iwd2021.
It’s a day where globally we celebrate women's achievements & seek to make this world we live in inclusive. At #hopegardensindia we pledge to continue to smash stereotypes, offer opportunities for all & importantly enable girls to be educated to a level where doors are opened and not shut for them. We believe in leading by example and what fantastic women we have in our communities to do just that. Look no further than Saguntha.
We managed to find some peace amid the storms this week to plant up our #hopegardensindia paddy field for the third time! After a period of fallow to regenerate the soil Archbishop Samuel and the team planted 50kg of rice - it should be ready for Christmas!
We have had an incredible response to our #hopegardensindia appeal, 450 food parcels have now been delivered. Families units are often complicated with often 3 generations and extended family living under one roof. 450 parcels have fed at least 2500 people.
Loneliness, anxiety and stress are all too common an issue faced by many globally and your relief efforts could not have been more timely. We are deeply encouraged by the positive impact that this act of compassion, providing such practical help, can have to uplift spirits at such a crucial time.
With no income families continue to struggle meaning that starvation is a very real prospect.
As lockdown continues across the districts our appeal funds will continue to be used for food parcels and supporting families most in need.
