24 hours with Rakesh (Work in progress) **7:38 am.**

7:38 am.
Rakesh and his friends go to the street to take a car to the school. This is the door to the upstairs to New Light. New Light installed here a free comdom vending machine. Kalighat is one of the biggest red light areas in India. A lot of men came everyday to have sex with the mothers. HIV/AIDS is one of the biggest problems here.

New Light provides awareness programs Includes counseling, intervention and rehabilitation, regular meetings with mothers regarding the danger of HIV, distribution of free condoms and home based palliative care for HIV positive patients.
