Few of you have been able to avoid noticing that we work with an orphanage in Udupi, India. On 21 January 2011, a tragic accident occured at the orphanage. On of the boys there, Ravi, who is 11-years-old, was burning leaves and compost when his clothes caught fire. He suffered third-degree burns on half of his body, and is currently being treated in the burns unit at a hospital outside Udupi. Now, two week after the accident, his situation is stable, but we can expect months of hospital treatment, along with necessary skin grafts and plastic surgery.
A collection started, entitled ”100 KRONOR TILL RAVI”. So we ask all our friends to join in and help out. The more of us there are, the better we can guarantee Ravi the treatment he needs in the months ahead.

Many thanks for your help and support!
