Three kids, covered in dirt and dust, were wandering about the streets of Guwahati trying to make a living from their harsh environment. Scabs and sores bore evidence to their ongoing lack and need.
With no home to stay, no proper food to eat and no one to love and care, life was not easy. They began to wash utensils in the hotels; in return they got food for their survival.
Rahul’s father had abandoned him when he was just 12 years old and his mother had expired some years back. The responsibility of taking care of his younger brother, Babli, and younger sister, Ganga, now fell on his little shoulders.
Poor living conditions made these children vulnerable to several diseases. Ganga suffered seriously from severe wound infected by maggots on her head. Anguish and suffering seemed to replace fun and joy of childhood.
In this miserable condition, education was but a distant dream. With such a meager income and poor food, the thought of education never dawned in them.
Fortunately though, their life did not continue the same! World Vision came for their aid.
Ganga was given emergency medical treatment and she recovered completely. In the World Vision Guwahati street children project, they are given good education and proper care. They are taught to read and write, they are given awareness on various social issues and personality development classes are held.
