Giving Clothing

At the beginning of each school semester many of the children need new uniforms which their families cannot afford.

And at Christmas time also, many of the children receive new clothes.

This last Christmas, Father purchased 150 saris to be given to the women in the parishes as Christmas presents. Even something as simple as a new sari which costs approximately $7.00 is beyond the means of most of the families.

As many people cannot afford even the most basic items such as socks and underwear, Father Marneni has provided these items as well.
