| The happy bride! |
Recently a wonderful
experience happened in the villages LDLM serves. Rupa, a village girl and one
of LDLM’s teachers did not have the funds to afford her marriage. Normally
parents borrow money for the marriage at a very high interest rate, and never
recover from the debt.
The Mission took
responsibility to develop awareness among the neighbors and relatives to stand
beside the parents of the poor village girl and helped her collectively in her
social function of marriage.
All the workers
contributed a substantial amount out of their salaries, believing that they all
are part of one big family! Rupa would not ask for help but it was the duty of
all of them to find out what was needed.
All the workers
planned and shared the responsibilities like marketing for the marriage,
marketing for the Dinner of 250 heads, arranging the cook, fixing the menu,
supervision of the marriage ceremony, serving the lunch and dinner.
The marriage was a
grand celebration for everyone. All the workers, relatives, and the
borjatris enjoyed it so much!
