Manish has saved a child from drowning

Manish (5)
Dear UBS, RoseMarie, Hudson, Srikanth, Don, Craig, and Anjana,

Manish has been associated with the Apna Skool since 2005. He has just completed Grade 5 and passed the NIOS (National Insititue for Open Schooling) certified Grade 5 examination and is now eligible to be admitted to Grade 6 program anywhere.

The Apna Skool education centres conduct examinations through the NIOS to enable children of migrant workers to be eligible for enrolment in any school once they go back to their villages.

His family consists of 7 members with two older brothers and two sisters, all having to pitch in to provide for family needs. It is tragic, however, that his eldest brother often gets drunk and becomes abusive.

Manish is a good swimmer and one occasion, while bathing in a canal in his village, he saved the life of a child from drowning. He loves sports such as badminton and swimming. He wants to  to join the Indian Army and serve the nation.

Thank you, Hudson, for donating a year of school lunches to Manish.

Thank you, Rosemarie, for donating a year of study materials to Manish.

Thank you, UBS, for providing a set of two uniforms to Manish.

Thank you, Srikanth, Don, Craig and Anjana for coming together to provide an entire year of medical care to Manish.

Your generosity will ensure that Manish is able to rise to his full potential.
