Manasi is a budding philosopher
posted January 10, 2011

Twelve year old Manasi is currently studying in her fifth grade. Her father, Mool Chand does white-washing while her mother, Tarawati works as a cook in nearby houses. She assists her two sisters in household chores. Despite her humble background, she has taken life head-on and is very clear about what she want to do in life. She wants to become a nurse so that she can help the poor. She says that she wants to study because this will help her to become a good human being. Clearly, her subtle philosophical attitude is evident at such a tender age. According to her, society respects educated people and everybody should aspire to be one.
Manasi likes to study and her favorite subject is Mathematics. She likes to visit different places and tour around the historical and cultural sites. One day, she wishes to see the Taj Mahal at Agra (one of the seven modern wonders of the world, located in India). She is fond of making drawings and playing hockey. She recently saw the movie 3 Idiots and bets that she can watch it any number of times.
Amandeep, Pooja and Molly, your donations would ensure that Manasi gets nutritious lunches for a full year, and is able to study on a full stomach.
Chandan, your gift of a year of study materials ensures that Manasi can continue attending school.
Rob, your gift of two sets of uniforms would ensure Manasi doesn’t have to shiver in the winter months.
James, your gift of a year of medical check-ups will ensure that Manasi remains healthy and safe from illness!
Armed with the gifts you have made possible, Manasi is now geared up to study and perform well in school and achieve her goal of becoming a nurse and serving the poor!
Your gifts means a lot to her. Thank you, Amandeep, Pooja, Molly, Rob, Chandan and James for your kind gesture!
