Inspiration is the key to the success of every human being; we will inspire one and another in many ways. So, greatly influenced by the Deshpande Foundation, I would like to you tell about myself.
I am Savitha Bai, born and brought up in a small village in Davangere district in Karnataka. My village is not having basic facilities, and there I saw many girls struggling to get their education. However, I got a great opportunity: the chance to finish my post graduation in social work.
I have a great desire to provide basic education to all children who are not receiving the opportunity of education. I believe that if a person gets a good education, he can survive his life.
The main reason why I opted for this fellowship is because having a education background, I can survive my life. In turn, I have an urge to learn more, which will give more color to my field in the development sector. Working with people requires a very knowledgeable and skillful personality, so I expect this fellowship to make me a skilled and resourceful leader.
This fellowship is very important for me, because it is giving me a new vision of social entrepreneurship. It is also providing examples of innovative ideas, which I will then implement wherever needed in the social sector.
Most successful personalities throughout history created their path by daring to face challenges and in turn casting their notes on the memory sheets of the era. This fellowship will show me that path, but it is up to me cast my own notes.
The skills I will learn in this program will make me a successful social entrepreneur, who will challenge social problems and address these problems in innovative ways. This fellowship will make me a strong pillar of society and a resource to the social sector.
Every individual has their own unique qualities. If they get the right platform to show their concern, talent and capabilities, then they can change society and the whole world with their passion.
History stands witness to those persons who recognized their capabilities in themselves, had faith in their strength, dared to dream, and persevered to achieve their dreams.
For this fellowship, we came from many different backgrounds but we have one goal: to become social entrepreneurs. On behalf of all fellows, I say this: we promise you that we will apply our potential and passion to find innovative ways to change our society.
I got pleasure to do fellowship in Deshpande Foundation; I thank the Deshpande Foundation which has given me this opportunity to put across my vision in development sector.
