What?
Sleeping arrangements for a Children’s Home run by Dil Se Trust in Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India

Why?
Presently, the trust has 12 children living with them, 5 orphans and the rest from abusive families/drunkard fathers/ill parents/separated families. The children sleep on mats on the floor and Mr Chandrabose who runs the trust made a request if individuals or group can sponsor five 2-tiered bunkers for the children.  (Update:  2 more children have arrived at the home bringing up the total number of children to 14)

How?
Raise donations to buy 5 bunkbeds.  Each two tier bunker costs about Rs.9500/- (including mattresses), so the total cost will be Rs.47,500/- approximately (USD $780).  With paypal commission, we would need to raise about $825 to meet the goal.

When?
By September latest, so that during the monsoons, the children can have a warmer place to sleep
