SUCCESS STORY [ CRP BANGLADESH ]

The Change Maker : Shoma

Shoma Akter is a 36 years old lady, who lost her mobility after typhoid fever in her childhood and was bound with a wheelchair. When she was younger, no one played with her because of her disability. Her grandparents neglected her and did not take her to the doctor. CRP visited her home and convinced her father that she would be better at CRP. Having a desire to study, she was admitted to William and Marie Taylor School (WMTS). She was sent to Ganakbari for training after studying in CRP up to grade-V. After receiving the shopkeeping training, she started a shop on rent with the help of CRP and her shop is doing well. She requested everyone to pray that one day she can make her shop bigger and does not have to be dependent on anyone.
