After distributing wheelchairs in Ongole, I extended my time in India with a non-governmental organiztion called READ. They recently built a Disability Center to provide services and aid to people with disabilities in Andimadam, India. Some of the sponsor children in READ were HIV positive and orphans. Again, I saw many cases of young people with disabilities with polio and leprosies. During my visit, I got a chance to play with the children, to distribute school supplies, and to encourag them. You can find out more about the organization by visiting http://www.sahaya.org/read/read.html.
