Silambarasan

Silambarasan came to Cornerstone Children’s Home in 2011 with his older brother, Dhanush. They had lost their father in a car accident, and their mother was left too destitute to care for or educate them by herself. Silambarasan is ten years old, and dreams of being a dancer, while his older brother hopes to become a mechanic. At Big Hug Foundation, we want every child to have the opportunity to pursue their dreams, passions and hobbies, and, once they reach adulthood, find a job that suits their needs and desires. With your donation, we can help Silambarasan and his brother turn their dreams into a reality, whilst also helping their mother improve her own situation.

Hear from a Big Hug Fundraiser

"With Big Hug, it's amazing to see just how far even the smallest amount of money goes. This is probably why they do their utmost to keep their admin cost as low as possible and ensure each pound is so carefully allocated. It is probably the most fulfilling feeling to know you are part of the reason that a child now has a future, now has a chance of an education, a family or sometimes even just a roof over their head.

Big Hug's goals are simple but life changing. The dreams are big but focused. The love is clear and the hope is unstoppable... The decision to donate and fundraise for this charity was pretty simple."
