Growing up, I got the most attention among my three elder brothers and an elder sister. My father worked in a threading mill for 14 hours to provide for us. He always worked hard to make sure that we got the opportunity in our life they never received. After my mother passed away, it was my elder sister who took care of me and my brothers. If it weren’t for a someone who sponsored us, me and my brothers, we would never had the opportunity to go to a good school, clothes to wear or even food to eat. The person provided us with shelter, food and good education. It was my sponsor that provided me with an enviroment for quality education and an opportunity to go to India for further studies and graduate. Teach For Nepal is my way of paying it forward. I want to use my education and my work experience from India to help students who are struggling in classroom and life. Education is very powerful. If I did not have access to this tool, I would not have had the same opportunities I have today. In the next two years, I want to equip as many children as possible with this tool. Education helps you to distinguish between what is right and wrong. It teaches you to be kind, generous and selfless.
