A Journey to Hope: The Resilience of Sakuntala Giri’s Family
Sakuntala Giri and her husband, Basanta, live with their two children, Samay (7) and Lipsa (8), in the village of Kolipal, Deogarh via Pallahara, Angul district, Odisha. The family’s survival depended solely on Basanta’s meager earnings as a daily wage laborer, which were barely enough to provide food and meet basic needs.
Their struggle intensified when Samay became severely malnourished. The family couldn’t afford protein-rich food essential for his recovery, leaving them fearful for his life. The situation grew increasingly desperate as they battled hunger, poverty, and mounting health concerns.
During one of SAMBANDH’s routine outreach visits, a staff member discovered the family’s plight. Recognizing the gravity of Samay’s condition, SAMBANDH acted swiftly, providing immediate nutritional support that saved his life. However, the organization’s assistance didn’t end there.
To empower the family toward self-reliance, SAMBANDH provided them with 20 hens and 5 roosters to initiate poultry farming. With dedication and hard work, the family now collects around 15 eggs daily. They consume three to four eggs to ensure proper nutrition, sell 10 eggs at the local market for ₹10 each, and keep the remaining eggs for hatching. Additionally, selling hens and roosters during emergencies has become a reliable way to cover urgent medical and household expenses.
Today, Sakuntala’s family is healthier, financially stable, and full of hope. Expressing her heartfelt gratitude, Sakuntala says, “SAMBANDH gave us a new life. We were lost in despair, but their support brought back our hope and happiness. We will always be thankful for their kindness and help.”
