Dear Friend,
Good afternoon and greetings to you from the Hope House. It is time to update you our work that you have been supporting so faithfully. Since our last update, two more chidlren have been placed in adoption taking the toltal to 6 children (three in the US, one in Italy and two in India). Two more chidlren have been matched with loving families to be placed in the US and we are waiting for the paper work to be completed to make travel plans.
I want to share an exciting news with you. For the last six months, India's largest philanthropic organization - Azim Premji Foundation has been doing a deligence on us to see if we fit their profile for extending support and I am happy to inform you that they have agreed to fund 20 employees salaries out of the 25 for the next three years. This is a huge relief because in the last 19+ years, we never had anyone as generous as this to extend salary expense support.
Since they are extending salary support, we'll still need support for milk powder, diapers, travel and medical expenses and I am praying and hoping that you'll continue to support us. Currently, in the adoption agency alone we have 17 staff and at times when children get admitted in the hospital, we find it dififcult to schedule the staff as the hospital is away by 15 KM from the Hope House. Currently we have 14 children which is our maximum capacity.
I would like to invite you to visit our web site at www.indiahopehouse.org along with the social media handles to get more information about our work. Right now we are doing a lot of work to create awareness about adoption foster care in India through short videos. I would love to hear your feedback on the videos that we have created.
Thats all for now and we would love to hear from you.
With kind regards
Ruby Nakka
