Place Bhiwandi, Mumbai

Age 12

Farhan lives in Bhiwandi, India with his 12-member family. His father works a power loom in the textile industry and his mother does pearl beading at home. They have a combined income of less than $200 monthly. Farhan’s father finds it very difficult to manage the expenses of the large family and they suffer from malnourishment.

After seeing the condition of his family, Farhan’s dream is to become a doctor. He wants to help people who are not financially strong and to improve the quality of life for his family. Farhan needs a sponsor to help him realize his dream of helping others.
