Shilu is Thriving in School! 📚🎒✏️

Mamta and Archana catch up with Shilu (right)

On October 20, Social worker Mamta and volunteer Archana traveled to Bharuch, Gujarat, to visit Shilu (rescued February 24, 2022) in her dormitory. Shilu was overjoyed to see them!

Shilu eagerly shared about her daily routine. She said she loves her studies, especially computer science, and has jumped into many activities in the dorm. When she showed Mamta and Archana her school notebooks, they were impressed with her work. Her writing was neat and thorough, and showed how much heart she is pouring into her education.

At the shops with Shilu

Shilu also shared that she is struggling in mathematics, but that she is determined to improve. Mamta and Archana were impressed with her self-awareness and drive. Shilu is also working extra hard to prepare for her upcoming exams.

During the visit, Shilu mentioned having body aches, so Mamta and Archana took her to a nearby hospital for a quick check-up. Once all was clear, they did some shopping for things Shilu needed. Shilu thoroughly enjoyed the visit and the shopping trip.

We are so proud of Shilu and the dedication she continues to show every day.
