Manvita is 4 years old and attends kindergarten. She comes from an extremely poor family where they could not take care of her. She was received by a pastor, who took care of her. Now she lives in a children's home near the Godavari River. The day consists of playing games, daily prayer and Bible study.
Many children under the age of 5 die in India. This is partly due to poor hygiene, the caste system and a lack of clean drinking water.

We deliberately do not have a CBF quality mark. However, we do meet a number of important conditions of this quality mark. One of the reasons that we do not have this quality mark is the costs that are charged for this; this would significantly increase our overhead costs. We prefer to spend this money on the projects we support.
