A little boy’s accident - and how we stepped in when it mattered most
Sometimes, showing up means being there in a moment of sudden need.
Rishabh is just six years old and has been attending our Bijnor centre for the past six months. Like many children in our programs, he was beginning to find joy in learning and a sense of belonging.
Recently, Rishabh was involved in a serious road accident while crossing the street. He suffered a broken shoulder, injuries inside his mouth, and damage to his front teeth. Since then, he has struggled to eat and is in significant discomfort.
At home, the situation is difficult. His mother is deeply worried, with very limited financial means to support his treatment.
When we heard, we responded.
Project Help India was able to provide ₹20,000 (approximately $350 AUD) for immediate medical care - ensuring Rishabh could receive urgent treatment without delay.
However, his recovery will take time, and significant, costly further medical support will be needed.
For now, we simply ask that you keep Rishabh in your prayers.
Because sometimes, showing up means standing with a child and his family - ensuring they are not alone in their most difficult moments.
