Covid-19 was very harsh on each and every citizen. Many children became orphans due to the second wave of the global pandemic.

Today, we have brought such a story that features Jai Sharma who is a foster dad of 38 children. 

Jai is definitely a hero without a cape. Jai hails from Dehradun and he gave up his MBA at the age of 22 and started an NGO – Just open yourself (J.O.Y).

At that time, he decided to adopt 38 children and he became their foster dad. Jai told TOI, “We aim to finance the education of these students for the next 2-3 years till they become self-reliant.

When the second wave of COVID-19 started, we encountered five such families in the initial two weeks where both the parents had died, and the child/children were left alone at home. A few of these children were of class 4th-5th age group, one was in 12th, and the rest were small in age. At that moment, it hit our mind that this unfortunate scenario is inevitable, and we were to come across more such cases as the pandemic rose.” 

Jai loves his kids as much as their real parents and regularly shares pictures with his kids on the social media platforms.
