It has not been easy getting from all our homes all the 150 homeless people, witn almost 10 of them on wheel chairs and 8 of them on cluthes.
And 80% are on psychiatric medication and require constant monitoring.
We had to Hire 4 big buses to transport all of them.
I am happy that both the Directors ie
Wonen & Child and Social Welfare, accepted the invitation at short notice , attended the function well before time and saw with their eyes and understood the trouble our NGO goes through daily rehabilitating these homeless people of which 70% are goans .
♡♡ Thanks to Fr Henry , Director of Cruz de Milagris for allowing us the usage of the Hall and for alot of services that comes along with the hall .
We paid a small fee for hiring the premises but superb facilities especially since most of the homeless are old and suffering from disabilities.
♡♡ Thanks to our Operation manager Mr Sapnesh Salgaonkar and his boys for taking all the trouble in arranging the decorations, busses, facilitating the transportation of these 150 homeless people suffering from Disabilities.
This is just part 1 of the book launch .
We will be uploading 2 more parts with videos of the function held today .
God bless you all
