Charity
Big Hug Foundation is dedicated to providing shelter and education for underprivileged children in India. The children we support are all destitute; some are orphans and others are runaways escaping a lifetime of neglect and/or abuse. Big Hug aims to relieve these children of hardship and break the cycle of poverty by providing them with clean, safe shelter, a real education and above all, a family...what every child deserves. At our partner project, Cornerstone Children’s Home (based in south India) we currently support 33 children and young people. The goal of the home is not to be an institution but to provide a loving, safe and comfortable family atmosphere for the children. It only costs £5 to provide a child with shelter and education for an entire month. That’s as little as 17p a day to change a child’s life. Visit out website to find out more information about the work we do and the children we support.

Bharat, Love, Deena £100.00 (+ £25.00 giftaid) 17.02.12 It's unnatural for ppl to run around the city unless they are thieves or victims. It makes ppl nervous to see sm1 running. I know that when I see sm1 running on my street, my instincts tell me to let the dog after 'em. G'luck Alka. You'll do great! :) |
