Success Story of Kavitha



A 70% disabled person from an interior village from Bellary district.  A daughter of a farmer who totally depended on the mercy of nature to get good crops.  His daughter having passed her puc, didn’t know what to do next and spent most of her time at home. The family could manage to afford for her education in Govt school without being burdened with loans.  The family could meet only the basic needs.  The girl having tried in her surroundings for a job for survival, could not  get any as her knowledge was limited.    She was of the opinion that her life is meant to live in village. 
Once she came in contact with Pankh-Alamba Center, it was a new joy that entered in her life.  She was overjoyed to make an entry into the organization and put her best efforts to avail all the opportunities offered.  She completed her 3 month PANKH- Retail Job linked training and immediately got selected in a prestigious organization, Sangeetha Mobiles in Bangalore.  With this, her confidence level has grown to greater heights, and a new world is opened for this person who once was confined to village surroundings.   There is a bright smile on the face of this 20 year old girl whom the organization has offered the salary of  Rs 8,500/-  per month.  She is grateful to Pankh-Alamba for its efforts to put her in the main stream of life which brought dignity of life.
