@cordusa - Changing Lives "We all possess this one great gift - the ability to discover and develop the infinite possibilities within us." - Swami ChinmayanandaThe mission of CORD (Chinmaya Organization for Rural Development) is to empower people, to help them reach their highest potential. Chinmaya Vijaya, CORD center in Andhra Pradesh that cares for orphaned girls, has upheld this mission of empowering the girls to find their path in the world. This month they celebrated the first wedding of the orphanage - Vimala with Ramesh.Vimala joined Chinmaya Vijaya in 2009 at age 10. Adopting Chinmaya Vijaya as her home, she strived hard and completed ophthalmology nursing at LV Prasad Eye Institute in Hyderabad and has been working at the LV Prasad Eye Institute for 2 years. Her husband Ramesh P has completed B.Tech in Computer Science and is working at Chinmaya Vishwavidyapeeth. The wedding was celebrated in a grand manner at the orphanage, supported by the entire community. The Kanyadaanam was performed by Drs Sumathi and Apparao Mukkamala, who have been the guiding light of Chinmaya Vijaya. While Vimala plans to settle down in Kerala with her husband, she leaves behind hope and light in the eyes of all her sisters in Chinmaya Vijaya - to discover and develop the infinite possibilities within them.#orphanages#wedding #humanity #donate #nonprofit #givingback #helpingothers #happywedding
