MOPARRU ORPHANAGE

Originally founded in 2011 Moparru orphanage is situated in the southeast of India, in the district of Andhra Pradesh. Caring for between 30-40 children daily, the orphanage's primary aim is to ensure children are safe, happy, and receive a good education. Providing 24/7 care for the children are the Pallikonda family, headed up by Raju and his wife Lavanya.

Each day, they make sure that the children have adequate access to water, food, clothing, and go to school. They both love what they do, and their two daughters Amulya and Anusha also care for the children when they are not studying themselves.
