CHOOSE HOPE THAT LASTS
“Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore…”
(Revelation 1:17b-18a)
Every Easter, Christians around the world celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Christ’s death and resurrection makes us right with God and gives us life forever with Him – He provides a hope that lasts for those who trust in Him.
For our 2023 Easter Appeal, we invite you to choose hope that lasts for those in some of the toughest circumstances in India and Sri Lanka.
Our partners in India and Sri Lanka work to address issues of poverty and more, shining a light into the lives of struggling families and reshaping their future with hope. We work with them on key projects, such as the Safe Hub Project, Single Parent Project, and our Sponsorship Programme. These are our focus this Easter Appeal.
INDIA
Sangli Safe Hub Project
The Sangli Safe Hub Project is located in one of the largest red light districts in India.
In this area, many marginalised children and families live in a vulnerable and unsafe situation whilst their mothers are working.
The project is coordinated by Pandita Ramabai Mukti Mission in India and will support children and families by funding a Day Care Centre where the children receive an education and meals support.
It will also support a safe and secure overnight shelter for children.
SRI LANKA
Single Parent Project
Being a parent in a low socio-economic area of Sri Lanka is difficult enough, but for single parents it is extremely tough!
Single parents need to work long hours to provide basic food and cover living expenses, including educational and medical costs for their children.
Caring for their children on top of long work hours, and ensuring safe child care whilst they work is very stressful and tiring. This is especially difficult while the children are young and dependant. It is really tough doing everything on your own!
Wings of Hope Lanka, in partnership with Mukti Australia, has created the Single Parent Project to give these hard-working parents a helping hand.
The project also aims to assist and empower single parents with skills development and training, so they are better placed to earn a more reliable income and provide for their children themselves.
SPONSORSHIP
Where tragic circumstances shatter lives, sponsorship can help build a brighter future. Our long-running Sponsorship Programme has seen hundreds of individual lives transformed.by people, just like you! People who care! Many different paths bring women and children to Pandita Ramabai Mukti Mission in India and Wings of Hope Lanka in Sri Lanka. When poverty strikes a community, education becomes an expensive dream, food becomes limited and of poor quality and health suffers. Domestic violence and abuse makes life terrifying and unsafe. In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the vulnerable are more vulnerable than ever before. It is under these circumstances that sponsorship provides hope, security, and the comfort of knowing that there are people who care for you.
When you choose hope that lasts by sponsoring a woman or child through Mukti Australia, you restore opportunities that poverty has taken away. Sponsored women and children receive quality education, nutritious food, and holistic care that lifts them above their circumstances. Many of our sponsored children have gone on to receive a tertiary education and are now advocates for social change in their own communities. You will also have the opportunity to connect with your sponsored woman or child personally through written correspondence, encouraging them with your message while reports, photos and updates show you the change YOU are making possible this Easter Appeal.
