About Praveen Kumar
Praveen Kumar lives with his parents, two brothers, and one sister in a small mud hut in a remote village in Western India. This area is in a valley that experiences intense heat and drought seasons. The family uses wood as fuel to cook their meals. The water well the family uses is about a third of a mile from their home.
Praveen comes from a Christian family; they attend church each Sunday, attend a Bible study, and have a daily family Bible-reading and prayer time. Both of his parents are unskilled laborers, which means they get arduous jobs at construction sites or in agricultural fields. Since both of his parents work outside the home, Praveen helps with household chores, gardening, fetching water, and tending livestock. Praveen wants to become a teacher one day. He enjoys reading, singing, dancing, art, along with playing soccer, cricket and carrom. His favorite foods are dal (lentils), rice, vegetables, chicken, chapatti and mutton. Praveen needs your help and support to provide for school fees, uniform, books, school bag, and other needs.
Thank you for helping provide Hope, Dignity, and a Future to Praveen!
