Annual Family Income: 10,000 Indian Rupees
Brief family background: Praveen's father's sudden demise seven years ago, put the family in financial distress. Since his passing away, Praveen's mother, Asha, is solely responsible for raising her three children. Asha, who had been deprived of an education herself, is currently working as a daily laborer. Praveen's elder sister, Jyoti, has completed her twelfth Grade; Praveen is in Grade twelve and his younger sister, Uma, is in Grade ten.
SLF recognized Praveen's need for external financial help to continue his education, and adopted him under the AFE (Adopt a Family for Education) program in February 2004.
