At Badhate Kadam Foundation, we believe that true change begins when we uplift those who need it most. On this inspiring note, we are proud to share a heartwarming moment from a recent event at our office in Jainamore, Bokaro District — the educational adoption program for 7-year-old Shailputri (affectionately called Gudiya), a girl with extraordinary strength and courage.
Meet Shailputri: A Beacon of Hope
Despite being physically disabled and born without hands, Shailputri has defied every odd with grace and determination. What truly amazed everyone present was her ability to write, study, and manage her daily activities entirely with the help of her feet. Her confidence, independence, and willpower left a lasting impression on every attendee.
Honoring Her Spirit
The event was graced by two distinguished guests:
-
Jaridih Circle Officer Pranav Rituraj
-
Jaridih Police Station Incharge Vikram Kumar Singh
Both officers lauded Shailputri’s talent, bravery, and resilience. They shared words of encouragement and praised the Foundation’s initiative, calling it a “step in the right direction” to build an inclusive and supportive society.
Educational Responsibility Taken by the Foundation
In a touching moment of solidarity and compassion, Foundation Director Krishna Murari Dutta announced that Badhate Kadam Foundation would bear the complete educational expenses of Shailputri from this academic session onward.
“We are committed to supporting the dreams of those who need us the most. Gudiya is an inspiration to us all. From today, all her school-related expenses will be the Foundation’s responsibility,” said Mr. Dutta.
He also encouraged all Foundation members to remain actively involved in helping the underprivileged, stating that “service to the needy should be our shared purpose, done with full energy and heart.”
A Step Towards an Inclusive Future
This initiative is not just about financial support; it’s about sending a powerful message — no dream is too big, and no disability can hinder determination. Through the continued support of donors, members, and well-wishers, Badhate Kadam Foundation hopes to empower many more lives like Shailputri’s.
