Two of our boys, (Ganesh & Rahul) are pursuing formal education at Candolim and are doing quite well. One of the boys, Savio, will be enrolled into the Montford Institute for skill based education which will equip him with skills to land a good job.

The boys were very excited for the Christmas season. Children prepared Christmas cards to give them to the visitors and sponsors. Many visitors visited the House and gave a donation in cash and kind. We are very thankful to all our kind sponsors and donors.
