Aleena’s father, Tomy was running a restaurant in Chennai, which closed down recently due to Covid. During the same time, his mother-in-law was diagnosed with cancer, and the family had to spend a lot of money on her treatment.
They are now struggling to pay the 10th standard fee for Aleena, which comes to INR 34,000. Since they don’t have any other source of income, the family approached MicroCharity for financial assistance.
