Day Spring Home
Welcome to the Dayspring Home, located in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, South India. The Dayspring Home is home to children who have been orphaned from parents who passed away from HIV/AIDS, or from parents who can no longer care for them.
Dayspring Home is directed under BLOSSOM Trust, a non-profit organization who addresses issues concerning women’s and children’s rights in South India.
The home has been operating since 2003 but has recently moved to Chitturr, a village 11 kilometers from Virudhunagar. The new building provides toilets and a large living area for children to play. Its convenient location on a farm (also operated through BLOSSOM) gives children a healthy diet and free rein to explore the expansive surroundings.
Introduction
The Dayspring Home was founded in 2003 by BLOSSOM. Although the Dayspring Home was initially founded to care for children affected by AIDS, (children whose parents have either passed away or can no longer take care of them), the home also admits children from single-parent families, where the only opportunity for the mothers is to work in the demanding work conditions of matchstick and firework factories in the Districts of Sivakasi and Virudhunagar.
Thanks to donations from overseas, the Dayspring Home moved from Virudhunagar to Chitturr village, giving the children a large and spacious environment to play in. Caritas Sweden bought land for the establishment of a poultry farm and building and The Dayspring Home construction was funded through the generous donations and assistance from; Fr. Benjamine Vima, Mrs. Anna Cocozza, Sweden and two overseas volunteers. Currently the Dayspring Home has the capacity to care for 25-50 children.
