Manisha: Age: 7 years old: Manisha is very new to Asha, but is such a great help to the staff. She enjoys taking care of Tabitha and the younger girls and she always has a smile on her face. Manisha’s father is an evangelist who is working in a tribal area. He makes 350 rupees a month (about seven dollars USD). She was living with her mother in a hostel, but contracted scabies and was not allowed back. Manisha has three sisters and two brothers, all of whom are with her mother. Because Manisha was getting such a poor education, she is being tutored at Asha. Right now she struggles with her studies, but hopefully she will be able to go to school soon.
