Leprosy Care

Leprosy is considered as a dreadful disease and though curable, the permanent deformity they carry, keep them under scorn and disgrace. More than the disability that they battle with, it is the stigma from the people that hurts them the most. The ‘disgrace’ attached to this disease even today imposes a heavy burden not only on the affected individuals, but their families. They long for love, care and acceptance.

Agape Life Line reaches to the leprosy affected people and spends time listening to them, touch and comfort them giving them a sense of belonging and acceptance. We celebrate their birthdays which makes them feel special. When one dies and they cannot afford a decent burial, we do it for them making the others feel valued. They are also provided with essential toiletries such as soaps, tooth paste and brush, oil, shampoo, other specific needs, and snacks to one’s desire.
