RAGS TO RICHES - Alok Benjamin

All these teenagers are underprivileged but distinction holders in their 12th class, coming to our free employability course(2nd batch) from far distances. Kind of Rags to riches story in the making. You can be a part of it by sponsoring a teenager with a one-time amount of ₹3000/- only. Yesterday, being day one, I asked them about their interests and one of the students said that he is interested in reading, I asked him what is he reading currently and he said other than textbooks I don’t have a book to read. I asked him ‘what you would like to read?’ to which he said ‘a book of the constitution’. The Irony is that so many people have lots of books to read but they don’t and there are others who want to but cannot afford them. We cannot make a difference in all people's lives but at least one life.
