Story of Soumita

Real story made possible through your generosity.

🌱 A Dream Shaped by Courage

Soumita Karmakar, a bright student from a small village in Hooghly district, has always excelled in academics despite difficult circumstances. She secured 79.57% in her Secondary Examination in 2020 and completed her Class 12 from Dwarhata Rajeshwari Institution with strong determination, even when her preferred science stream remained out of reach due to financial constraints.

Her father, a small farmer and the sole earning member of the family, struggled to support household needs, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted their already limited income. With education becoming increasingly difficult to afford, Soumita’s dream of pursuing higher studies and becoming a lawyer began to fade.

📚 At this critical moment, My Children Foundation stepped in and supported her educational journey, helping her continue her studies and move closer to her goals.

💙 Today, Soumita continues to pursue her education, driven by the hope of becoming self-reliant and supporting her family in the future.

Her journey is a reminder that with timely support, a child’s potential can overcome even the hardest barriers.
