Meet Ravina


Ravina has always stood out as an exceptional individual, displaying empathy, sensitivity, and profound thoughts. Her deep understanding and embodiment of our imparted values are evident. One week, during our lesson on gender equality, our discussions noticeably impacted her. In a subsequent student assembly, she raised a valid concern about the separation of boys and girls despite our recent topic. This incident is just one example of her outstanding actions.

When organizing a trip to Kuchchh, financial constraints prevented many children from participating. Despite our efforts, our financial limitations posed a challenge. However, Ravina devised an incredible solution: she decorated a metal box and solicited donations from households, persuading numerous people to contribute. Even the children themselves contributed some rupees. Eventually, she managed to gather enough money for one child's trip. This exceptional picnic experience was solely thanks to Ravina's ambitious and social spirit!

Recognizing Ravina's immense potential and talents, it's clear that she shouldn't remain underestimated. We aim to enroll her in a private school starting next year. Despite our current support for her brother's private school fees, Ravina sought help due to her family's worsening financial situation. Her father's excessive spending on alcohol left her family unable to pay for her brother's education, despite her and her mother's efforts to earn through peeling garlic. This situation showcases her selflessness and care once again. While we've begun supporting her family, it's now crucial to prioritize Ravina's education and her own opportunities for a bright future. Today, she is one of our own teacher’s at Manav Gulzar, and we are so proud of her full circle journey.
