Ashokan

I am Asokan. I am originally from Kottayam, and my name is Santhosh. Later my family moved to Tamandu. I ran away from home at 12 and deliberately changed my name to Asokan so that people wouldn’t identify me. I came to Trivandrum hoping to earn money and repay the debts my father had made before he passed away. I began in a small hotel and explored new areas to make money. I usually slept in the market or in front of shops. That is where Don Bosco found me in 1990. They offered kids like me on the street a shelter to stay. I never knew that was the beginning of a new chapter in my life. Don Bosco helped me build a life from nothing. I then became a part of the Don Bosco family. Currently, I live with my wife and two children and work with Don Bosco for the less privileged children. Don Bosco inspired me to dream big and encouraged me never to lose hope.
