While traveling across India, working closely with children and child evangelists, Solomon has identified the children infected with HI V/AIDS as the most neglected and ill-treated. A lot of stigma & discrimination is attached to these issues. He has developed a passion for children suffering with HIV/AIDS, who are the innocent victims of their parent's faults. This passion has developed into a vision, with an aim of giving Love, Laughter & Life to these orphan children who are all infected with HIV/AIDS.
Solomon started a shelter in March of 2006 with 1 child and has 14 children in its Home now. Due to lack of facilities and support at least another 20 children have been denied shelter during this year.
