Reshma at a tender age has realized that poverty can come in the way of anyone’s dream. Instead of going to school, Reshma makes the rounds of four to five houses each day and takes care of her father, till her mother and elder sister return. Reshma‘s father has been bedridden for two years now, due to an accident. Since then, life has taken a bitter turn for Reshma. The only respite in Reshma‘s life comes from her dream of becoming an airhostess when she grows up.
Smiling Hearts Welfare Society as an NGO in India has so far directly put more than thousands of children like Reshma into the path of empowerment through education through its Mission Education programme.
Like Reshma, there are millions of children in India working as child labour. At least 62% of the total out-of-school children in India are girls. Last year, 51% of the total beneficiaries of Mission Education programme were girls.
