The Presidents's letter
The goal of dignifying the poor and poorest of poor has been set into motion. A lot of planning and effort has been undertaken by all functions to internalize and align strategies to realize our goal of ensuring a distinguished life for poor children, men and women. All we believe in is robust strategy making and enthusiastic implementation to provide our beneficiaries access to free and quality education, primary healthcare and safe living conditions from violation and exploitation. We also work towards reducing the rate of malnutrition and making sure children's voices are recognized in issues that affect them. The collaborative efforts through the years have helped us put 'the best interest of the urban and rural poor' in the public consciousness. We are certain, that the discussions that have been sparked in the public arena will help us open our eyes to the reality and take a positive stand for our beneficiaries in distress. As we set out to achieve our goals, we thank you - our supporters who give us the much needed momentum to go out and realize our vision of a happy, healthy and creative childhood for every child and voice to every voiceless. Our goal of transforming the socio-economic scenario of the deprived people of the Diocese is on the right path and shall continue further. With faith and goodwill,
Rev. Fr. Eusebio Fernandes
