Sometimes, we might see people who are disabled or helpless and we do get a feeling "why God is sometimes crazy?" But that's really not the case. First and foremost thing that you should keep in your mind is that the same God who created people with such disabilities created you. And you should thank God for making you fit enough.Never think God is crazy for making you see people like them, it is actually a message to you from God that you are fit enough to help people who are really in need.
Around 2 years back, one of my close friend Siva Prakash introduced me to a great person Ravee (actually his colleague). We wonder sometimes whether humanity exists, and my answer would be "yes" because there are people like Ravee. I along with Ravee and Siva went to Porur in Chennai to "Karunai Villa - A home for poor, disabled, mentally challenged and handicapped"
The home had many mentally challenged people rather than old aged people. We gave some biscuits and food items that we bought. That day, someone donated lunch to share his birthday (one more instance to prove humanity existed). We stayed there for some more time, I didn't feel like talking at all, I was out of words.
Then we went to Alwarthirunagar where the office was situated. I had the opportunity to meet the great Ms. Lizamma Mathews, the founder of Karunai Villa. She shared with us, her experiences, hurdles that she had all these years and the difficulties they are facing now in running the home.
I shared my experience with some of my friends and colleagues, now it stands as a big group in helping the home. Thanks to all the kind hearts....

Ravee somehow struggled to bring a portal live for Karunai Villa to let people know about the home. The URL is http://www.karunaivilla.com/
If any of you feel, that you are right now capable of supporting this home, do let me know. The help that we render might be very minimal, but it really does create a lot of difference in the lives of such people and of course a great difference in this society.
