Last year The Sreepur Village introduced the importance of World Mental Health Day with their beneficiaries and their children raising awareness and helping them to become more conscious about their mental health issues.
Every month our mothers will meet to discuss any concerns or worries they have about their futures. We also hold muscular relaxation and yoga classes to aid in stress which also heavily focuses on wellness, self-belief and positivity.
Out of the blue, at the tender age of 13, Chia found herself sitting on a bridal stage, about to marry a man who was 35 years old. Her parents had arranged the match, finding the man from their nearby locality in Bhairab.
He was a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) businessman who occasionally sold vegetables and fruits on the street. Chia's aspirations and youthful dreams were abruptly interrupted by this sudden marriage. Instead of books, she found herself with kitchen utensils in her hands. She went from feeling like a princess to becoming a servant overnight.
Sumi's journey is a testament to her resilience and determination to create a better life for herself and her child. Her success serves as an inspiration to all those facing adversity, reminding us of the transformative power of support, training, and the opportunity to rebuild one's life.
