Gunjan loves her new school uniform!

Fourteen year old Gunjan comes from the village of Anupshahr and is in class 9B. Her father, Devdutt, is a teacher while her mother, Geeta, is a housewife. Gunjan’s mother, who completed class 10, fully supports her going to school because she knows the benefits of it and how it will affect her future. The family, including one older and younger brother, lives in a two room house which has a toilet and electricity along with a hand pump for water.

Gunjan is a quiet and shy girl but is nevertheless quite smart. She’s often found at school chatting with friends if she isn’t singing and entertaining her friends with the latest Bollywood music. Before coming to Pardada Pardadi in 2008, Gunjan attended school in another village, and she joined this school because she thought the education was better. In the future, Gunjan would like to be an English teacher when she grows up!

The school has chosen to open a school the area that Gunjan lives, so that these girls can get an education and have the ability to have a job after they graduate. Supporting these girls will ensure the success of them!

Thank you so much, Chaithra for supporting Gunjan in your donation of a new uniform!
