Kiran from Jahangirpuri, Delhi
Age: 13
“I like to sew in my free time. But, I keep very busy. I come to school, and then I go for my extra classes. After I’m home, I help my mother make bangles between 5pm and 6pm. We go to the Sunday market every day to sell these bangles. Then between 6pm and 8pm I do my homework.”
– As told to Tania Goklany. Kiran studies at Rani Chennama Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya in Jahangirpuri, Delhi. Teach for India takes classes for her batch.
This is HUGE !! Congratulations Kiran and Hera and Vipul !!
I wish we had many children with so much balance, motivation and helpful nature. I am so sure that she will complete her schooling and accomplish her goals in life. These kids should be highlighted and given more exposure to better things in life. God bless you Kiran and your family. March on….
Let us learn from children
