There is a team of domestic staff including two excellent cooks who provide three nutritious vegetarian meals every day and three dhobis who wash and iron all the children’s clothes. Another blessing is a small herd of cows that provides fresh milk all the year round.

Money for the children’s smart uniforms is generously provided by a donor and their play clothes are supplied by a whole range of well wishers and are adapted to size by a skilled in-house tailor, who makes maximum use of every scrap of material.
