INSPIRING INCIDENTS

Janakipushpam – Vallioor – Tirunelveli District.
Thiru M.Ramesh, Thambaram, Chennai is a well wisher of Kendra and itsservices. Every year he donates for adopting elder citizens who have no dependants. Mr.Ramesh belongs to Middle class family. The recent rain – disastermade him lost everything he had earned. Hence I didn’t approach him for donation. But he had sent the amount without buying anything for his own. His service is a valuable one and it impressed me a lot.

T.R.Brindha –Kinatradivilai - Kanyakumari Distric
8 children belonging to ‘Narikkuravar’ group are coming to our Creche. Their attendance is not regular. They will come regularly for few days and absent for few days. Nowadays I get down from the bus at Villukuri and go to their place tofetch them. I will be waiting till they get ready. After coming to the Creche I take special care to make them know good habits. After three days I asked them about the good habits. A child named Muniasamy recalled everything and recited ‘Early to Rise’ ‘Early to bed’. Then only I have realized that with in 3 days the kids have developed a lot. Our efforts have some effects in them and I am contented and encouraged to do more for them.

R.Rathi – Kizhakottai - Ramnad District
Usually we take our Creche children for Medical check – up to the Siddha centre in our place. They will give medicines for cold, fever and a few other common problems. We gave the children those medicines with proper instruction to their parents. Two kids – Kavi Bharathi and Kaviyazhini are studying in our Creche. One day I received a call from their father in the night. Somewhat hesitated I attended the phone. He told me that his daughters were suffering from service cold and fever. Though we took them to the doctor for two days, there was noimprovement. The medicine sent by you last month gave them quick cure. He also asked me whether I was much impressed him that siddha medicine then. I was much impressed and felt very happy about my concern and the parent’s approach.
