Angela+May

She invited Angela to stay with her and an orphan in her care named Monalisa in their 2 roomed home in the town of Muzaffarpur. One room of the home was where Jyoti and Monalisa lived and the other was used by Jyoti to educate 20 children. Angela pledged to sponsor Monalisa throughout her childhood. The sponsorship of Monalisa grew into a project to build an orphanage in Muzaffarpur, where a few more children would have a safe home. With financial support from Angela the school has been built. Ongoing monthly funding provided solely by Angela and other friends of the home pays for food, medical and daily needs for the orphans who live at the home. It also pays for teacher salaries, tuition and school equipment and supplies. There is still much to do and there is a need for regular ongoing funds to run the school and pay for its teachers. Thanks to Anglea and a band of committed supporters many children will have their chance at a productive future. ||
