Her father suffers from a chronic lung infection which affects his ability to work.A family of 6, where they didn't even have enough to eat, education was a distant possibility. The RBKS staff met the family and motivated them to enroll her in the residential school.She was provided with timely meals along with her education. She has overcome malnutrition, is healthy and takes a keen interest in education. Content that they made the right choice, her parents enrolled her sister in the school too. It is a little step to help a girl get the nutrition which can fuel her development.
