Jalamuru Kalavathy belongs to Relly semi tribal community, is a widow and has three daughters. Her husband Ganesh died of Kidney failure four years ago leaving the responsibilities on the shoulder of Kalavathy to care these little ones. A widow is considered as a curse to the family and society in their community. She is not allowed to take part in any of the public functions. They are not even acceptable to enter in to any other families because they believe that she brings misfortune or calamities by her entrance to the family.
She goes to sell seasonal vegetables, which is purchased from the merchants and goes to sell house to house carrying it on the head load. From this tedious work she gains mere income, which is not sufficient to meet the both ends. She is a victim of constant headache and it is very painful to carry the head load, but forgetting herself for the well being of her children she is forced to do so.
They have two cents of land. They are living in a tiled house which is very old and the roof is leaking all over and it is impossible to live during the monsoon. It has two rooms and a verandah. House is electrified and they have public water convenience.
Her daughters are good in studies. Sandhyarani, doing her graduation and succeed to reach the final year of B Sc. She stays in a government hostel, which is allotted to the poor students. She is the pride of her village, that being very poor and had no facilities as a tribal girl but succeed to reach the graduation.
Sravani and Sonia are trying their best to attain good marks and reach somewhere in the society. If any assistance provided she can run a petty shop where she can earn regular income to satisfy their hunger and to meet the various needs of the growing children.
Any help given to them will be greatly appreciated. Kindly come forward to redeem them from the poverty, and loneliness and bodily ill health? May God Bless the kind benefactor!
