Equipped for School

The Rainbow Children’s Home in Andhra Pradesh, India, is a haven for children affected by the stigma of leprosy. In former times, these children would probably have been excluded from school and left to beg and roam the streets, but Brighter Future, who run the children’s home with support from The Leprosy Mission, believe that every child has a right to education.

They provide the youngsters with nourishing meals, clothing, welfare, and medical support. They also ensure that each child has a place in a primary or secondary school and provide them with everything they need to do well in their studies.

During the peak of COVID, when schools and colleges were closed, Brighter Future even provided laptops, mobile phones and smart TVs to enable the children to attend online classes. The children also love books and reading and are very keen to learn. They are always delighted to receive new schoolbooks - thank you for your support and generosity.
