And out of the ashes, she rose. .
At the age of 11, Carol had to carry the weight of her family. She came to El Shaddai in 2005, with her 4 year-old sister soon after the demise of her step-father. Her mother was an alcoholic and the children were living in complete neglect.
When she came to El Shaddai, it was a whole new world for her. Chaos were replaced with order, neglect with love and care, tears with happiness and she cherished her new aboard. She was enrolled in Shanti Niketan School and continued her studies till 12th grade. After her schooling, she moved out of El Shaddai and joined the head office of El Shaddai as an HR Assistant trainee. Along with being independent, she aimed at further education and pursued Public Administration at the age of 21. Before she knew the title of HR executive was credited to her and she continued thriving at her work place.
Little did she know, from the girl who stumbled on her English letters at 11, would end up as the Director of Administration at the age of 25, in the same institution which nurtured her throughout her childhood years. She wants to help more children like her, to have a better future.
She says “my mother gave me birth, but this life today was gifted to me by El Shaddai and so I call myself, a daughter of El Shaddai”.
