Sumitra is a sweet and active little girl who can often be found dancing to her favorite tunes or playing volleyball with her friends in her free time. She loves attending school and her favorite subject is her science class. Hoping to help others when she is older, Sumitra wants to become a doctor.

Sumitra’s father died of jaundice and her mother is struggling to provide for the three children alone. She earns a meager and inconsistent income as a farmer, and she cannot provide for Sumitra. Sadly, she has had to send her daughter to an orphanage so she can be properly cared for. Through sponsorship, Sumitra will receive things like healthy meals, basic medical care, and a continuing education.
