Since 1983, Little Flower Leprosy Welfare Association has been serving as a ray of hope for thousands of individuals and families affected by leprosy. Leprosy is not just a physical illness—it often brings along intense social stigma, isolation, and emotional trauma. Those affected are frequently abandoned by their families and pushed out of their communities, stripped of basic human dignity.
