Anjum started attending Bens School from an early age and been supported by LCA throughout. Her parents are illiterate and work as daily labourers to care for the family. Anjum studied very hard at Bens School and went onto further studies which is preparing her to enter Medical School. Coming from such a poor background she has done extremely well and is very grateful to the sponsor for enabling her to get this far in life.
Santosh
Santosh is 24 years old and has post-polio disability of his legs. He underwent a polio operation that was sponsored by LCA in 2017.
He has no family, and when he first met Sujatha of New Life Disabled Ministries he was in a very distressed state and was contemplating suicide.
After the medical treatment he can now walk with the aid of crutches. He has completed the Bachelor of Technology degree in Computer Science and now has a full-time job.
Kiran & Anjum
Kiran & Ravi are from a remote village

grandparents, but sadly they died in 2021 from

CARMEL MINISTRIES

Their mission is to reach out to the underdeveloped villages of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana to improve the lives of the underprivileged. Since partnering with them, LCA has provided support to village community centres, adult training, children’s education, clean drinking water facilities, medical aid and care for orphans.
A successful set up of a water mineral plant helps provide clean drinking water to the local community and neighbouring villages. LCA also sponsors 9 children who are in the children’s home.
NEW LIFE DISABLED
Through our partner in Hyderabad, every year LCA sponsors operations for 10 young people who are affected with polio, cerebral palsy, and congenital abnormalities. Most of them are disabled children and young people from a rural background. These disabilities have left them feeling rejected, bed ridden and sometimes suicidal. After their operations, they are further provided with medical aid and physiotherapy. This gives them new hope for the future and help to become accepted and integrated into society. It is a great opportunity to reach out to those neglected and poor and to give them a better chance in life. Many of those who have had their operations go on to make a great recovery, secure good jobs, marry and have families of their own.
BENS SCHOOL
Bens school is an English medium school located in Nellore city of Andhra Pradesh. LCA is currently sponsoring education for 20 children. These children are from very poor backgrounds where the parents are daily wage labourers with no spare income to support their education. The school provides a positive and supportive environment for children of all backgrounds to reach their full potential. This gives these young children better job opportunities in the future and enables families to come out of the cycle of poverty.
JUSTICE AND HOPE
We have recently partnered with Justice & Hope mission in Chennai city of Tamil Nadu. LCA has partnered with them to support individuals and children who have been victims of domestic violence and abuse. Their vision is to enable protection of human rights for the vulnerable, equip those responsible for upholding rights, and engage the community to bring change and be changed.
