Purna Marandi
Grade 8 | Male | ID#3308
Child of Leper
Purna's parents suffer from leprosy. They live as outcasts from society because of the social stigma that is associated with their disease. Unable to work, they spend their days begging in order to survive. Purna's father spends most of what they receive on alcohol rather than their needs. Faced with many hardships, his parents came to us for help. Now in our care, Purna has all he needs. He is a smart and healthy boy who is dreaming of becoming a doctor someday.
