I would like to update the last progress report, in which I had shared a story of a girl who wanted to study further in medical line “Komal wants to become a Doctor”.
Komal could not get admission in MBBS or Physiotherapy, as well in Nursing for the government seats. Due to high competition, she did not come in the merit list. She has applied for GNM Nursing and got admission in a private college in “The Bombay Patel Welfare Society”, Bharuch district. Her fees for the first year is Rs. 75,000/- and total fees would reach approximately 3 Million for her three and half years of study. Gram Vikas Trust has helped her by giving her some aid of money to give some relief to her parents.
Her parents were not ready to support in her educational expenses as the fees were very high. Though Komal’s school teachers and field officer from Gram Vikas Trust have approached her parents and convinced them for the minimum support they can afford. They said that they won’t be able to afford all the expanses, they just want Komal to study hard, and they also shared that if she study hard the financial condition of their family will change.
There are many other Komal who are dropping out because of the financial condition of their families, I really thank to the donors who have supported for this cause. Your generous support to these students are really very meaningful.
I request the other great people for their support, to these 40 children in their education, your few rupees may change someone’s future.
