Overcoming Loss to Achieve Educational Success and Family Joy

Muskan Sansthan has been a beacon of hope for many girls, offering them a nurturing environment and the opportunity to thrive. Among these girls is Sakshi Bhagora, whose story is a remarkable testament to resilience, transformation, and success.

Sakshi lost both her parents at a very young age, leaving her and her siblings—an older sister and a younger brother—in the care of their maternal grandparents. Her nana and nani, along with their son and his wife, tried their best to raise the children. However, it was not an easy situation, and soon, Sakshi’s maternal uncle (mama) came across Muskan Sansthan, a home dedicated to providing care and education for orphaned girls. Understanding the opportunities that the sansthan could offer, he brought Sakshi to the orphanage.

Initially, Sakshi struggled to adjust. She was introverted, withdrawn, and rarely spoke to anyone. Her traumatic past had deeply affected her, and she found it difficult to express herself or connect with the other children. The compassionate staff at Muskan Sansthan immediately recognized her emotional needs and began working closely with her. Day by day, through consistent counseling and care, Sakshi slowly started to come out of her shell. She began engaging with her peers, playing with other girls, and showing signs of improvement.

The breakthrough came when Sakshi developed an interest in studies. The teachers and staff at Muskan Sansthan, through their unwavering dedication, nurtured her interest in education. When Sakshi joined, she didn’t even know how to read or write. However, through consistent guidance and motivation, she not only caught up with her peers but exceeded expectations. In her 8th board exams, she scored an impressive 80%, and by the time she sat for her 10th boards, she achieved 85%—a remarkable feat for someone who had once struggled with basic literacy.

Sakshi’s educational journey continued as she completed her 12th grade with flying colors. Encouraged by the team at Muskan Sansthan, she pursued a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) and a Bachelor of Education (B.Ed). Along the way, she got married and built a happy family of her own, a reflection of the secure and supportive upbringing she received at the orphanage.

Today, Sakshi is not only living a fulfilling life with her family but is also preparing for the Rajasthan Public Service Examination (RPSE), aspiring to contribute to society as a government officer.

Muskan Sansthan transformed Sakshi’s life—from a girl who didn’t know how to read or write to a confident woman preparing for a competitive exam and living a life full of happiness and purpose. Her journey is a shining example of what love, care, and education can achieve, and she stands as an inspiration to many others at Muskan Sansthan.
