I want to become an Engineer


Ganesh( in school dress) with his elder brother


Ganesh Goshwami belongs to a poor family. His family's main source of income is from a rented tea stall. His family works really hard to make ends meet. At 4:00 in the morning, they open their tea stall. Ganesh, along with his elder brother, assist their mother in the tea stall. He is so dedicated that nothing matters, even his studies. Last year, he participated in the summer camp organised by HOPE which had lots of classroom activities. He was so impressed with it. He started liking his studies again. Although there is no encouragement from his family, he now comes regularly to school and attends all his classes. He now gives time to his studies. After school hours, he does his homework and reads the lessons given to him. When asked what he wants to become, he said 'I want to become an engineer' He is grateful to HOPE for getting his interest back in his studies.
