The project in India of which your sponsor child is a part is part of Save the Unsaved Ministries in Tenali and Chirala and was founded by pastor Abraham Kuchipudi. There are currently more than sixty children living in both children's homes. Pastor Kuchipudi started taking care of four street children in the year 2000, but this number quickly grew. The vision is to give the children a safe home, where they receive healing and recovery and then blossom into strong, independent individuals rooted in the love of Jesus.
The home in Chirala was created after the tsunami in 2004. Many children lost their parents and family and were left alone. To give these children a safe home, Pastor Abraham set up a children's home where these children were lovingly cared for by local people. In the meantime, this has grown into a permanent place where people come together, cook for each other and where people receive training about hygiene and education. Because the children can go to school, they have a better chance of a job and are less likely to be married off.
