BSSK an orphanage set up in Pune, was born to give a second chance to newborns and children under the age of six found abandoned or surrendered. Additionally, it facilitated these children to live and lead a life under loving care and warmth of families. It began with very humble beginnings, but has found homes for more than 3500 children. It also has an outreach programme for children and families in the community and has served more than 1400 children.
Simon and Jack will be helping to teach basic lessons in English and Geography and also, more importantly, to help establish an active sports programme for the children living in the orphanage.
In order to travel they must raise sponsorship and so a coffee morning will be held in the club (date tbc). If anyone has any unwanted children's football boots or old clothes they would be gratefully accepted.
