In this episode
of Hope in Motion
00:00:01.06\00:00:03.36
field worker Raj Varma
seeks out children in need
00:00:03.39\00:00:06.14
in some of the most
remote regions of India.
00:00:06.17\00:00:09.83
On one of these trips
00:00:09.86\00:00:11.36
he encounters a man
struggling with a tragic past.
00:00:11.39\00:00:16.69
I lost both my
parents when I was small,
00:00:16.72\00:00:19.47
at that time my uncle
was taking care of me.
00:00:19.50\00:00:22.47
He sold me to people who
were into human sacrifice,
00:00:22.50\00:00:25.80
as a sacrifice
for the harvest time.
00:00:25.83\00:00:29.83
When Rohini
returns home for a visit,
00:00:29.86\00:00:32.26
she teaches her father
what she's learned at school.
00:00:32.29\00:00:35.21
I used to go there and
tell my father about God.
00:00:35.24\00:00:40.11
Whenever I say he used to tell
00:00:40.14\00:00:42.52
I know about
Him, I know about Him
00:00:42.55\00:00:44.01
but he never prays to God.
00:00:44.04\00:00:46.44
So I teach him
how to pray in Telugu
00:00:46.47\00:00:49.21
and he learnt and he
started believing in God.
00:00:49.24\00:00:53.42
And now he becomes a pastor
00:00:53.45\00:00:55.75
and he was working there
in our village as a pastor.
00:00:55.78\00:00:59.62
And the blueprints
for the new campus of
00:00:59.65\00:01:01.42
Sunrise Children's
Home, finally come to life.
00:01:01.45\00:01:04.72
And now when I saw the
happiness of the children
00:01:04.75\00:01:07.90
I also felt very happy
00:01:07.93\00:01:09.62
and even I also need
some refreshment to come out
00:01:09.65\00:01:13.03
and play with the children
00:01:13.06\00:01:14.35
and see the
happiness of the children.
00:01:14.38\00:01:16.31
India is a land
full of contrast.
00:01:25.63\00:01:30.34
Is a land of great
mystery and beauty,
00:01:30.37\00:01:33.81
it's a land of
unspeakable despair.
00:01:33.84\00:01:37.25
But traveling through
India one thing is for sure
00:01:37.28\00:01:40.71
it's a land filled with people
00:01:40.74\00:01:42.35
who should never
be underestimated.
00:01:42.38\00:01:45.76
For the last forty years
00:01:45.79\00:01:47.39
Asian Aid has invested
in the futures of people,
00:01:47.42\00:01:50.25
who have never
been given such a chance
00:01:50.28\00:01:52.58
and their investment
has proven infinite returns.
00:01:52.61\00:01:57.07
Driven by the
vision of Helen Eager
00:01:57.10\00:01:59.28
dedicated to helping
those who have the least
00:01:59.31\00:02:02.10
Asian Aid is an organization
00:02:02.13\00:02:03.73
implementing
diverse development projects
00:02:03.76\00:02:06.02
and sponsoring
thousands of children.
00:02:06.05\00:02:09.39
Their outreach spans
from Bangladesh to Nepal,
00:02:09.42\00:02:12.63
Sri Lanka and beyond,
00:02:12.66\00:02:15.00
from remote
villages and empty field
00:02:15.03\00:02:17.55
to sprawling
centers of education,
00:02:17.58\00:02:20.15
from nothing to
the unimaginable.
00:02:20.18\00:02:23.90
Now Asian Aid
decided to document
00:02:23.93\00:02:26.68
the work it has been
doing all these years
00:02:26.71\00:02:28.59
with the desire
to show the world
00:02:28.62\00:02:30.59
what is possible.
00:02:30.62\00:02:32.12
By digging wells
in remote villages
00:02:32.15\00:02:33.88
for clean drinking water
00:02:33.91\00:02:35.75
and bringing
much needed healthcare
00:02:35.78\00:02:37.23
to the women of Nepal.
00:02:37.26\00:02:39.76
By providing an
education for orphans, deaf
00:02:39.79\00:02:42.24
and blind children giving
them a sense a place a home
00:02:42.27\00:02:46.54
but what we really discovered
was being given was hope,
00:02:46.57\00:02:50.28
giving hope to
children, giving hope to women,
00:02:50.31\00:02:54.78
giving hope to the
ones who needed the most.
00:02:54.81\00:02:58.80
This is Hope in Motion.
00:02:58.83\00:03:00.88
The Eastern Ghats of India
00:03:27.66\00:03:29.28
is a
discontinuous range of mountains
00:03:29.31\00:03:31.20
running along the east coast.
00:03:31.23\00:03:33.55
Many tribes have indigenous
people with ancient cultures
00:03:33.58\00:03:36.33
and customs inhabit
this region of the country.
00:03:36.36\00:03:38.79
The people here
survive off the land
00:03:45.54\00:03:47.75
hunting and
gathering in the forest.
00:03:47.78\00:03:50.18
There is very
little infrastructure
00:03:50.21\00:03:51.85
in the way of roads,
education and health systems.
00:03:51.88\00:03:55.83
As a result when a child loses
one or both of their parents
00:03:55.86\00:04:00.02
their ability to survive
00:04:00.05\00:04:01.48
becomes the
responsibility of the village.
00:04:01.51\00:04:05.84
In a place where
resources are limited
00:04:05.87\00:04:08.06
many children and
adults are malnourished
00:04:08.09\00:04:10.44
and often die from
preventable diseases.
00:04:10.47\00:04:12.88
Founded by
Lalitha and Raj Verma,
00:04:18.42\00:04:20.83
Sunrise Children's Home has
been serving children in need
00:04:20.86\00:04:23.62
from these tribal
regions since 2001.
00:04:23.65\00:04:27.90
Asian Aid
organization main aim is
00:04:27.93\00:04:30.29
to provide better education
for poor and needy children,
00:04:30.32\00:04:33.47
specially for
tribals, orphans, blind,
00:04:33.50\00:04:38.44
deaf and dumb and
different children.
00:04:38.47\00:04:41.79
In this area
I'm a field officer.
00:04:41.82\00:04:45.12
Then I came to know
through the government
00:04:45.15\00:04:47.55
that many tribal children
are suffering without parents.
00:04:47.58\00:04:51.96
Most of the parents
are dying with bad habits
00:04:51.99\00:04:54.52
like alcoholic
and other bad habits.
00:04:54.55\00:04:58.88
Most of the
children becoming orphans,
00:04:58.91\00:05:01.24
the government recommended me
00:05:01.27\00:05:04.33
to go to the
tribal village and survey.
00:05:04.36\00:05:08.24
Raj Varma has been
visiting these tribal villages
00:05:08.27\00:05:10.94
as a field worker for
Asian Aid for several years now.
00:05:10.97\00:05:14.43
During one of these visits
00:05:14.46\00:05:15.81
he met with the elders at
the Pamulu Geesada village
00:05:15.84\00:05:18.58
and told them about the work
00:05:18.61\00:05:19.95
Asian Aid was
doing at Sunrise Home.
00:05:19.98\00:05:22.23
He asked the
elders if there were any
00:05:22.26\00:05:23.68
children in need
in their village.
00:05:23.71\00:05:26.52
At that time my
husband he went there
00:05:26.55\00:05:28.93
and he saw the
children's condition.
00:05:28.96\00:05:30.92
Some of the children
their condition is pathetic.
00:05:30.95\00:05:35.28
So at that time
he came and told me
00:05:35.31\00:05:36.96
about the
condition of the children.
00:05:36.99\00:05:38.85
Then I told him to bring
00:05:38.88\00:05:40.39
so he went and
brought the children.
00:05:40.42\00:05:42.39
And when I saw children,
00:05:42.42\00:05:44.12
I was so scared to see
because of the malnutrition,
00:05:44.15\00:05:48.25
because they
don't have enough food,
00:05:48.28\00:05:50.48
enough of calories like
that their stomach was big
00:05:50.51\00:05:54.52
and their hands and
legs are very small thin.
00:05:54.55\00:05:57.71
I met this gentleman
and he told his story
00:05:57.74\00:06:02.41
how that girl was
suffering without mother.
00:06:02.44\00:06:09.01
My name is Nimmak Nageswar Rao
00:06:09.04\00:06:11.31
and I am from
Pamulu Geesada village.
00:06:11.34\00:06:14.09
One day Mr. Varma from
Sunrise Home came to my village
00:06:14.12\00:06:18.14
and asked if there
were any orphans children
00:06:18.17\00:06:20.45
so he could take
them to the orphanage.
00:06:20.48\00:06:22.48
And I explained my story.
00:06:22.51\00:06:24.25
At the age of six
Nageswar's daughter came to live
00:06:30.25\00:06:33.31
with the Sunrise
Home in Bobillie.
00:06:33.34\00:06:35.97
At the time no
one knew just how much
00:06:36.00\00:06:38.38
this meant to Mr. Rao
00:06:38.41\00:06:39.86
and the impact this would
eventually have on the family
00:06:39.89\00:06:42.49
and their village.
00:06:42.52\00:06:43.57
I lost both my
parents when I was small,
00:06:47.07\00:06:49.65
at that time my uncle
was taking care of me.
00:06:49.68\00:06:53.85
Nageswar Rao was actually
born in another tribal village
00:06:53.88\00:06:57.13
five miles from Pamulu Geesada.
00:06:57.16\00:07:00.22
Having lost both his parents
00:07:00.25\00:07:01.91
he was left in
the care of an uncle
00:07:01.94\00:07:03.55
who was an alcoholic
known for going to extremes
00:07:03.58\00:07:06.81
just to lay hands on a
bottle of locally brewed liquor.
00:07:06.84\00:07:11.33
He sold me to people who
were into human sacrifice
00:07:11.36\00:07:14.68
as a sacrifice
for the harvest time.
00:07:14.71\00:07:17.31
In that village
there was a human sacrifice
00:07:17.34\00:07:20.92
and they used to sacrifice
every evening and morning
00:07:20.95\00:07:26.35
one after another.
00:07:26.38\00:07:29.04
Like that turn came to my father
00:07:29.07\00:07:33.69
and they told that
tomorrow evening or morning
00:07:33.72\00:07:38.12
your son has to sacrifice.
00:07:38.15\00:07:40.55
So the people took me
away from the village.
00:07:44.80\00:07:47.30
They tied me up
with a stone on my neck
00:07:47.33\00:07:49.72
in the forest and hid me there.
00:07:49.75\00:07:52.63
Realizing the boy was
missing some of the villagers
00:07:52.66\00:07:55.41
forced the uncle to
confess to his whereabouts.
00:07:55.44\00:07:57.74
So all the people searched
the forest and found me there.
00:08:01.71\00:08:04.77
They found me tied
up with this big stone.
00:08:04.80\00:08:07.76
Finally they rescued me
and brought me to the village.
00:08:07.79\00:08:11.48
Worried about the
boy's long-term safety
00:08:11.51\00:08:13.89
his grandfather
stepped in and took Nageswar
00:08:13.92\00:08:16.49
someplace far away.
00:08:16.52\00:08:18.31
In this mountainous
region of the country
00:08:18.34\00:08:20.30
there are no roads or
vehicles just walking trails
00:08:20.33\00:08:23.20
through the thick forest.
00:08:23.23\00:08:24.72
The grandfather took the boy
00:08:24.75\00:08:25.96
to the village
of Pamulu Geesada,
00:08:25.99\00:08:28.06
there a couple heard about his
story and decided to adopt him.
00:08:28.09\00:08:31.61
They didn't have
children's so they adopted me.
00:08:34.32\00:08:37.20
When I was 18-years-old my
adoptive parents also died.
00:08:37.23\00:08:42.11
He was orphaned for the
second time in his life.
00:08:42.14\00:08:46.55
The people in the village did
their best to take care of him
00:08:46.58\00:08:49.43
and he became a day
labor doing odd jobs
00:08:49.46\00:08:51.92
and heavy labor
to earn a living.
00:08:51.95\00:08:53.86
The elders in the village
married him of to a local girl
00:08:53.89\00:08:56.54
and soon they had a child,
00:08:56.57\00:08:58.42
but shortly
thereafter she left him.
00:08:58.45\00:09:01.51
After my wife left me
00:09:01.54\00:09:02.92
and my daughter
I struggled a lot.
00:09:02.95\00:09:05.39
I couldn't take
care of my daughter
00:09:05.42\00:09:07.24
because I was
just a simple coolie.
00:09:07.27\00:09:09.51
Because of this the
villagers arranged a match
00:09:09.54\00:09:12.13
with another girl,
but my troubles worsened.
00:09:12.16\00:09:15.17
My second wife
didn't like my daughter
00:09:15.20\00:09:17.73
and my daughter
didn't like my second wife.
00:09:17.76\00:09:20.25
I was crushed in between.
00:09:20.28\00:09:21.99
Raj Varma brought
Nageswar a glimmer of hope
00:09:31.89\00:09:34.57
when he offered to
care for his daughter
00:09:34.60\00:09:36.37
thank you for an education.
00:09:36.40\00:09:38.12
No one could have anticipated
how the girls new life there
00:09:38.15\00:09:40.80
would also change the life
of her father and their village.
00:09:40.83\00:09:45.17
At six years old she is happy to
come and study in Sunrise Home.
00:09:45.20\00:09:49.81
For over 40 years
Asian Aid is an organization
00:10:27.33\00:10:30.86
giving hope to so many.
00:10:30.89\00:10:32.93
Their outreach spans form India,
00:10:32.96\00:10:34.87
Bangladesh to Nepal and beyond,
00:10:34.90\00:10:38.60
from remote
villages and empty fields
00:10:38.63\00:10:42.60
to scrolling
centers of education,
00:10:42.63\00:10:45.69
from nothing to
the unimaginable.
00:10:45.72\00:10:47.89
Asian Aid
development projects provide
00:10:52.01\00:10:54.08
child sponsorship,
fresh water, and medical care
00:10:54.11\00:10:57.71
for women and leper victims.
00:10:57.74\00:11:00.77
They provide a high
standard of education
00:11:00.80\00:11:02.99
to impoverished children.
00:11:03.02\00:11:06.08
Asian Aid has a
vision driven by a woman
00:11:06.11\00:11:08.94
humbly fulfilling
the Biblical principle
00:11:08.97\00:11:11.34
that calls for us to
care for the least of these.
00:11:11.37\00:11:16.20
This standard is
still true today.
00:11:16.23\00:11:18.87
The need is still there.
00:11:18.90\00:11:20.97
Less than 50% of Indian's
children get an education,
00:11:28.09\00:11:32.31
one million women in Nepal
suffer from uterine prolapse
00:11:32.34\00:11:35.41
and are in need
of immediate surgery.
00:11:35.44\00:11:37.97
Over 5,000 babies die everyday
00:11:38.00\00:11:40.57
due to extreme poverty.
00:11:40.60\00:11:42.74
These are better few
of the harsh realities.
00:11:42.77\00:11:45.38
Asian Aid is
meeting these challenges
00:11:49.23\00:11:51.42
and transforming the
lives of so many in need,
00:11:51.45\00:11:56.23
always sticking to their
core mission, giving hope.
00:11:56.26\00:11:59.83
Asian Aid sponsors
thousands of children
00:12:10.51\00:12:12.88
in slums and destitute villages.
00:12:12.91\00:12:16.88
They support over 100
schools and orphanages.
00:12:16.91\00:12:21.93
They provide a
value spaced education
00:12:21.96\00:12:27.20
and give them a
sense of place, a home.
00:12:27.23\00:12:31.89
Well, in my dream
I was just thinking
00:12:31.92\00:12:33.81
of a small boarding
school with maybe 50 children
00:12:33.84\00:12:36.90
and that of course did
increased to 200 quiet fast
00:12:36.93\00:12:39.71
but now to see these buildings
00:12:39.74\00:12:42.39
and this campus
is just so amazing.
00:12:42.42\00:12:45.74
And now there are 750
children actually studying
00:12:45.77\00:12:50.73
and learning so much
on this school compound.
00:12:50.76\00:12:53.66
In Nepal over a million women
00:13:04.81\00:13:06.64
suffer from an
epidemic of uterine prolapse.
00:13:06.67\00:13:10.11
Through their
educational outreach programs
00:13:10.14\00:13:12.23
and medical treatment clinics
00:13:12.26\00:13:14.23
Asian Aid has
helped thousands of women.
00:13:14.26\00:13:18.06
They also give
shelter and educate women
00:13:18.09\00:13:20.31
who have escaped from the
human trafficking business
00:13:20.34\00:13:22.87
providing them a way
back to a better life.
00:13:22.90\00:13:26.69
Asian Aid supports
premier schools for the blind
00:13:44.94\00:13:47.69
and the deaf preparing them for
success in the world community.
00:13:47.72\00:13:51.48
It's easy to put a price
on what a cost to educate
00:13:57.37\00:13:59.94
and feed a child for a day
00:13:59.97\00:14:04.11
but how do you put a
price on transformation.
00:14:04.14\00:14:11.12
Asian Aid graduates serve
important roles from nurses
00:14:11.15\00:14:14.79
and teachers to top leading
medical and research scientist.
00:14:14.82\00:14:19.72
All are
contributing in positive ways
00:14:19.75\00:14:21.73
to the global community.
00:14:21.76\00:14:23.36
I want to be a social worker.
00:14:31.16\00:14:34.99
I want to become teacher.
00:14:35.02\00:14:37.10
I want to become doctor
00:14:37.13\00:14:38.40
because I want to help
the other older people.
00:14:38.43\00:14:42.78
These children are living proof
00:14:46.33\00:14:48.23
that Asian Aid doesn't
just feed to child stomach
00:14:48.26\00:14:51.28
but fuels their desire to learn,
00:14:51.31\00:14:53.59
to achieve and to
give something back.
00:14:53.62\00:14:57.13
Asian Aid feeds a child soul
00:14:57.16\00:15:00.26
but ultimately what
Asian Aid does is give hope,
00:15:00.29\00:15:05.06
hope to children, hope to women,
00:15:05.09\00:15:08.49
hope to those
who need at the most.
00:15:08.52\00:15:12.71
Asian Aid knows that
making an investment in hope
00:15:12.74\00:15:15.93
requires a decision to act now.
00:15:15.96\00:15:19.21
It's a principle
that can only pay off
00:15:19.24\00:15:21.36
with help from
sponsors like you.
00:15:21.39\00:15:24.17
Standing still is not an option.
00:15:24.20\00:15:27.34
Asian Aid is Hope in Motion.
00:15:27.37\00:15:30.41
Nageswar Rao is a day labor
00:15:50.54\00:15:52.37
living in the remote mountain
village of Pamulu Geesada.
00:15:52.40\00:15:56.21
As a boy he endured
several lifetimes of tragedies
00:15:56.24\00:15:59.41
after he was sold
as a human sacrifice
00:15:59.44\00:16:01.81
and was orphaned
twice by the time he was 18.
00:16:01.84\00:16:04.96
His struggles
continued into his adulthood
00:16:04.99\00:16:07.18
after his first wife left him
00:16:07.21\00:16:08.91
with the child to
support on his meager salary.
00:16:08.94\00:16:14.95
Because of this the
villagers arranged marriage
00:16:14.98\00:16:17.54
with another girl,
but my troubles worsened.
00:16:17.57\00:16:20.61
My second wife
didn't like my daughter
00:16:20.64\00:16:23.16
and my daughter
didn't like my second wife.
00:16:23.19\00:16:25.65
I was crushed in between.
00:16:25.68\00:16:28.12
Rohini came to Sunrise
Home when she was six years old.
00:16:28.15\00:16:31.51
Then she comes
from tribal community
00:16:31.54\00:16:34.36
where there are no
facilities, road facilities,
00:16:34.39\00:16:36.95
electric facilities or doctors.
00:16:36.98\00:16:39.93
So at that time
she was six years old
00:16:39.96\00:16:43.64
and no one is there
to take care of her.
00:16:43.67\00:16:45.60
Rohini Nimmakka has
been at Sunrise Home
00:17:24.25\00:17:26.54
for the past eight
years and is now 14-years-old.
00:17:26.57\00:17:29.48
An eighth grade student
at the nearby SDA School
00:17:29.51\00:17:32.55
she's at the top of her class.
00:17:32.58\00:17:35.60
Rohini is a nice student here.
00:17:35.63\00:17:37.57
I think she already got
first rank in our first unit
00:17:37.60\00:17:41.82
and she is also one
of the intelligent girl
00:17:41.85\00:17:45.15
among the all students.
00:17:45.18\00:17:46.43
Why because since last--
00:17:46.46\00:17:47.64
I think so many of
our teachers are there.
00:17:47.67\00:17:50.73
They also told about her.
00:17:50.76\00:17:53.67
In all subjects
she got good marks
00:17:53.70\00:17:56.34
so like that she is
first ranker in this class.
00:17:56.37\00:17:59.66
Once in a while
Rohini is able to go back
00:17:59.69\00:18:01.80
to her village
in Pamulu Geesada.
00:18:01.83\00:18:04.08
It was on one of these
visits several years ago
00:18:04.11\00:18:06.50
that she started to
share with her father
00:18:06.53\00:18:08.56
what she was learning in school.
00:18:08.59\00:18:10.83
I used to go there and
tell my father about God.
00:18:10.86\00:18:15.82
Whenever I say he used
to tell I know about Him,
00:18:15.85\00:18:18.95
I know about Him but
he never prays to God.
00:18:18.98\00:18:22.12
So I teached him
00:18:22.15\00:18:23.44
how to pray in
Telugu and he learnt
00:18:23.47\00:18:26.44
and he started believing in God.
00:18:26.47\00:18:32.72
Previously we were
all idol worshippers,
00:18:32.75\00:18:35.13
but now I go door-to-door
00:18:35.16\00:18:36.91
and tell them about
Jesus and pray with them.
00:18:36.94\00:18:39.63
Now most of them are Christian's
00:18:39.66\00:18:41.45
and we started
worshiping in our houses.
00:18:41.48\00:18:43.91
Later on God
provided a nice church for us.
00:18:43.94\00:18:47.94
And now he became a pastor
00:18:47.97\00:18:50.18
and he was working there
in our village as a pastor.
00:18:50.21\00:18:58.10
I'm the pastor of this Church,
00:18:58.13\00:19:00.24
I've been pastoring
this church for nine years,
00:19:00.27\00:19:03.03
I've nearly 60 members here
00:19:03.06\00:19:04.94
we have worship every Saturday.
00:19:04.97\00:19:06.99
A few hours inland
from Pamulu Geesada,
00:19:59.43\00:20:02.41
Sunrise Home is in the
small town of Bobillie.
00:20:02.44\00:20:05.82
While the town center
maybe hustle and bustle
00:20:05.85\00:20:07.84
with business
transactions and shoppers,
00:20:07.87\00:20:10.36
not far beyond
under the beautiful
00:20:10.39\00:20:12.04
rolling hills rice fields
00:20:12.07\00:20:13.68
that are the signature
of this part of the country.
00:20:13.71\00:20:16.97
With over 80 boys and
girls packed into a single house
00:20:17.00\00:20:20.51
Sunrise Children's Home
is ready to make the move
00:20:20.54\00:20:22.93
from the town of Bobillie
00:20:22.96\00:20:24.46
to its peaceful and
spacious countryside.
00:20:24.49\00:20:26.72
Well, we started
this project last year
00:20:36.69\00:20:39.12
and every time I come
here, there have been changes.
00:20:39.15\00:20:41.72
Buildings are
starting to be completed
00:20:41.75\00:20:44.03
and the progress is bright.
00:20:44.06\00:20:45.98
When I was first invited
00:20:46.01\00:20:48.25
to accept the
position of director,
00:20:48.28\00:20:51.31
I was told about
the Sunrise project,
00:20:51.34\00:20:54.85
it was a privilege
to actually come here
00:20:54.88\00:20:57.87
and see what is happening,
00:20:57.90\00:21:00.10
and go to the
existing Sunrise Home
00:21:00.13\00:21:03.91
and see the children in
that very cramped, crowded place
00:21:03.94\00:21:07.95
and then come out here
00:21:07.98\00:21:09.01
and see what
they are becoming to,
00:21:09.04\00:21:10.85
unfortunately we cannot accept,
00:21:10.88\00:21:13.38
we cannot help
everyone that asked us
00:21:13.41\00:21:16.57
but certainly this
is going to allow us
00:21:16.60\00:21:18.64
to take in more children member
00:21:18.67\00:21:20.60
then we would
have been able to back
00:21:20.63\00:21:21.72
in the old, the old home.
00:21:21.75\00:21:24.24
Once in a while we bring
children here to get relax,
00:21:38.07\00:21:43.25
because everyday
they will go to school
00:21:43.28\00:21:45.16
and they will study,
they do their duties.
00:21:45.19\00:21:48.42
Today is the precious day
for them to relax for sometime
00:21:48.45\00:21:51.51
and they have lot
of place to play here.
00:21:51.54\00:21:54.21
Lot of place to dance and jump
00:21:54.24\00:21:56.69
and when they saw the
rooms, inside the rooms
00:21:56.72\00:21:59.78
when they saw
they, felt very happy
00:21:59.81\00:22:02.12
and they started dancing
and they started jumping.
00:22:02.15\00:22:05.83
Today when I
heard mummy told that
00:22:05.86\00:22:08.25
we are going to
Karada I was felt happy
00:22:08.28\00:22:11.52
because for long time
I did not see this home
00:22:11.55\00:22:18.27
and when I entered the campus
00:22:18.30\00:22:22.21
I was very happy
00:22:22.24\00:22:24.12
and first of all I
went to study hall room.
00:22:24.15\00:22:27.40
It's a big room
and I felt very happy.
00:22:27.43\00:22:31.14
My name is Jesudas,
00:22:31.17\00:22:32.35
I had passed 12th grade
00:22:32.38\00:22:34.60
and now I'm planning
to join nursing this year.
00:22:34.63\00:22:39.99
So before leaving this place
I'm very happy to come here
00:22:40.02\00:22:44.08
to look around my new home
and really I was very happy
00:22:44.11\00:22:47.63
because since we
for the past few years
00:22:47.66\00:22:50.85
we stayed at congested
place and now it is very free.
00:22:50.88\00:22:53.44
We can play freely and
nice bathrooms are there
00:22:53.47\00:22:59.01
and free rooms,
so I like it so much.
00:22:59.04\00:23:03.44
This project wouldn't never been
possible without the sponsors,
00:23:03.47\00:23:06.87
that every stage we had a
need for various buildings,
00:23:06.90\00:23:10.96
various needs and the sponsors
of kind come to the party.
00:23:10.99\00:23:14.42
The Lord is really blessed us
00:23:14.45\00:23:16.46
and I just want to
thank the sponsors,
00:23:16.49\00:23:18.96
and for those of you that
have contributed to this project
00:23:18.99\00:23:22.65
shortly the
children will be moving
00:23:22.68\00:23:24.44
and you made a big difference.
00:23:24.47\00:23:26.85
With the help of
Asian Aids sponsors,
00:23:26.88\00:23:28.85
Sunrise Children's Home is been
changing the lives of children
00:23:28.88\00:23:31.82
in need like Rohini
for the past 11 years.
00:23:31.85\00:23:35.24
Looking back Rohini
is thankful for the day
00:23:35.27\00:23:37.84
Raj Varma came to her village.
00:23:37.87\00:23:41.20
Whenever I saw that
pictures, I used to thank God
00:23:41.23\00:23:44.59
because if I did
not come here means,
00:23:44.62\00:23:47.38
I will be
somewhere in the tribal area
00:23:47.41\00:23:51.03
and I will be different.
00:23:51.06\00:23:53.10
I thank god for
bringing me here.
00:23:53.13\00:23:56.97
By God's grace I brought here
00:23:57.00\00:23:59.31
and now I'm like this.
00:23:59.34\00:24:02.51
Looking forward Rohini now has
a means to fulfill her dreams.
00:24:02.54\00:24:07.56
My favorite
subject is mathematics
00:24:07.59\00:24:10.99
and when I grow up,
00:24:11.02\00:24:12.24
I want to become an engineer.
00:24:12.27\00:24:14.29
Every year
millions of kids in India,
00:24:44.11\00:24:46.67
Nepal and Bangladesh
are unable to attend school,
00:24:46.70\00:24:50.14
and they're forced
to live their lives
00:24:50.17\00:24:51.44
in poverty instead of
reaching their potential.
00:24:51.47\00:24:55.13
In the
scriptures Jesus reminds us
00:24:55.16\00:24:57.76
whatever you do for
one of the least brothers
00:24:57.79\00:24:59.96
and sisters have
Mine, you do for Me.
00:24:59.99\00:25:03.18
Today there are so many
kids in need of sponsors
00:25:03.21\00:25:06.32
to provide them
food, clothing and shelter.
00:25:06.35\00:25:09.47
With sponsorship
through Asian Aid,
00:25:09.50\00:25:11.48
you have the ability to provide
00:25:11.51\00:25:13.55
these basic necessities
to the least of these.
00:25:13.58\00:25:17.37
Won't you consider
sponsorship Asian Aid,
00:25:17.40\00:25:20.23
you too can
make a big difference
00:25:20.26\00:25:22.48
every day in
the life of a child.
00:25:22.51\00:25:24.77
