Shabana, from Gurugram, Haryana, is a beacon of resilience and determination. As the eldest of five siblings in a lower-middle-class family, Shabana faced significant challenges from an early age. Born without hands, she learned to navigate life using her feet, despite her ITI certificate and strong desire to support her family. Her father, a mason, was the sole breadwinner, making Shabana's ambition to contribute even more pressing. When Shabana learned about our training program, her enthusiasm was palpable. Despite initial reservations and a lack of confidence, she engaged with the training process, particularly benefiting from a supportive WhatsApp group where she shared her creative interests. Her commitment paid off as she successfully passed her exams.
The path to employment wasn’t without hurdles. After an unsuccessful first interview, Shabana was disheartened. However, the unwavering support from her family, HR personnel, and our team motivated her to persist. Ultimately, Shabana secured a position as a back office executive at Web Date Systems Pvt Ltd. Although concerned about the commute, she embraced the opportunity with newfound confidence. Now, after a month on the job, Shabana thrives in her role, and her employer is impressed with her dedication and efficiency. Shabana's journey exemplifies perseverance and the transformative power of support and opportunity.
