Fundraiser Ended! This fundraiser ended on April 30, 2024
In the heart of Balaji Nagar, Yerawada, resides a couple whose resilience and determination shine brightly amidst life's challenges. Meet Alka and Sanjay Rokade, a pair whose bond is fortified by love and tested by circumstance. At 58, Alka shoulders the weight of their livelihood, while her husband, Sanjay, at 60, faces physical limitations that render him unable to contribute financially.
Their journey is one marked by perseverance. Despite the hurdles they face, Alka tirelessly ventures into the bustling streets, selling chocolates and biscuits to school children. It's a modest endeavor, but one that sustains their modest existence. Yet, with each passing day, the toll of age weighs heavier, and the balancing act between work and caregiving becomes more precarious.
Ray of Joy Foundation recognizes the unwavering spirit of Alka and Sanjay and extends a beacon of hope. Understanding the pressing need for sustenance and healthcare, the foundation pledges to support them with a year's worth of provisions. This lifeline comprises essentials vital for their nourishment and well-being: 6kg of rice, 6kg of wheat, 4 liters of oil, 100 eggs, 3kg of dal, 3kg of sugar, 1kg packet of dry fruits, and 3kg of nuts every month.
This gesture of compassion goes beyond mere sustenance; it's a lifeline that alleviates the burden on Alka's shoulders, allowing her to focus on both her own health and the care of her beloved husband. With this support, they can redirect their limited resources towards essential healthcare needs, ensuring a better quality of life in their golden years.
In the heart of adversity, Alka and Sanjay find solace in the kindness of strangers, a testament to the power of community and compassion. As they navigate life's challenges with renewed hope, their story serves as a reminder that, even in the darkest of times, a ray of joy can illuminate the path forward.
