Aarthi had only ever known the streets as home. Her parents neglected her and she was forced to beg every day in the traffic, often verbally harassed by the crowds. She was in a very vulnerable situation being a young girl with no protection that a child needs. She was rescued by Project I Am International in 2018. She is now healthy, thriving, and safe. Her mom still chooses the streets as her home, but comes and visits Aarthi occasionally.
Vriksha’s parents had an abusive marriage because of his drinking problem. Her father unfortunately committed suicide when she was young. Only having a third grade education, her mother works as a maid and cook in several homes trying to give her children the best life she can.

We have stepped to ensure both Vriksha and her brother receive a quality education and learn about their true Father, Jesus Christ.
