Prathibha is determined to secure her son’s future!
posted March 14, 2011

Prathibha comes from a middle class family background and lives in Nampally, Hyderabad.
Prathibha family position is too week and Her mother works as a maid servant and earns a meager sum of Rs. 3,000 ($67) per month and her father does not have a job. She has three siblings – two brothers and a sister studying in the 7th grade. The mother being the sole earning member in the family, the entire family is dependent on her to meet their needs. With her meager income, she has to take care of the children’s education and the basic needs of the family. Understandably, they are going through a tough time and their financial condition is very poor.
Pratibha herself is married and lives separately with her husband and a three year old son. Here is her story in her own words: “I am married and have a 3 year old son. My husband who was good to me in the beginning does not want us now and physically abuses me. I am really upset. My husband works as a car driver but he does not give a part of his salary for the household needs and treats me very badly. That is how I decided to learn a skill that will help me find a job easily. I have studied only up to my 1st year of Intermediate course and had to discontinue my studies due to my marriage being fixed.” While she is hopeful that her husband will mend his ways someday, she is determined to stand on her own feet and secure her son’s future.
She heard about HOPE Training Center’s computer course from a cousin and got enrolled in the course. Pratibha was able to enroll and attend the computer course, only because of your generous donations, Neil, Ehtasham and Niranjan.
With absolutely no support from her husband and no source of income, it’s your support that gave her a chance to learn computers. She now hopes to complete her course and start working in a good firm soon.
She is extremely grateful to you all for coming together in support of her.
Thank you, Neil, Ehtasham and Niranjan!
