What HUGGS students are saying...
 
Ours is a very poor family. Me, mother, father, sister, 2 brothers, aunts, and grandmother live together. I am very much thankful to you...because now there is a chance for future studies.

 

I was about to stop my studies. Your help showed me a future. I like my maths teacher, when he teaches I would like to listen for a long time. My father works as a security guard and struggles for us. I love my grandfather, he also loves me a lot.

I used to worry a lot about how to study after my 10th class. But suddenly your help came. When I grow up I would like to help the poor any way I can.
My father is a painter. My mother stays home. My school is from 9:30 a.m. to 4:40 p.m. I am back home by 5:30 p.m. I go upstairs and study. Around 8 p.m. we eat dinner. I study for some time before bed.
My mother gave me birth, but you gave a future to me. My will is to get a Master’s in Computer Applications.

 

I go to school regularly. I wake up at 5:30 a.m. and start for my college at 7:30. I like all my teachers, and I have some good friends. My mom, brother, and me are very happy for your support. We will not forget you.

I am very happy and proud to be a part of HUGGS. I am going to school regularly, and my mother and sister are doing great.
My father passed away, my mother with her hard work supported me until my 10th class, she earns Rs. 50/day. I am able to study now with your sponsoring, or I would have been a burden for my mother. I will bring a good name to you and to my mother.
