\n\u201cBhavani has always been a strong young lady with optimism and positive thinking,\u201d says Bhavani\u2019s parents,
\nwho initially weren\u2019t very sure on how to help her. Her father, Meeraj Kumar, runs a furniture store in Hyderabad
\nand, along with Bhavani\u2019s mother, they always had been encouraging. Bhavani was born in the year 2002 with
\nmultiple disabilities. She could not hear and see. Though shock and sorrow consumed her parents for a few years,
\nupon her doctor\u2019s advice, they enrolled Bhavani into Early Intervention and training in living skills.<\/p>\n

Bhavani\u2019s parents encouraged her in sports and cultural activities. She had to overcome many troubles and hurdles from her childhood but never did Bhavani feel depressed.<\/p>\n

Bhavani wanted to pursue higher education but the family\u2019s financial crisis limited her options drastically.
\nBhavani approached Samarthanam Trust after hearing about the Higher Education Programme in her college.
\nBhavani availed the scholarship support from Samarthanam for her higher studies and is pursuing her
\nBachelor of Arts programme in the prestigious St. Ann\u2019s College for Women, Hyderabad.<\/p>\n

Bhavani was very passionate about sports since her childhood, especially Tennis. She has participated in many
\nInternational Tournaments and won many medals. Bhavani aspires to participate in the prestigious
\nWimbledon Tournament going further.<\/p>\n

\u201cSamarthanam has stepped in at the right time and helped me continue my education. They have supported with my college, and other expenses and I will be eternally grateful,\u201d says Bhavani.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
