Sunaina, a determined 14-year-old girl residing in Mumbai's Colaba area, faces more challenges than most, she lives in a low-income community and sadly her mother passed away earlier this year. Sunaina looks after her father and brother, taking care of all household duties and cooking. However, her life does have a positive, she joined OSCAR's football and life skills programme. Sunaina's dedication and ambition have made her a role model for her peers, excelling in both academics and football.
Since 2019, thanks to OSCAR's child sponsorship Sunaina has had access to the entire programme, providing her with invaluable opportunities. She has seized these chances to expand her knowledge, grow her confidence, and develop crucial interpersonal skills. Through OSCAR's life skills sessions, Sunaina has gained the ability to express herself with assurance and conviction.
Recognizing Sunaina's exceptional leadership qualities, her coach believes she has a bright future ahead. Grateful for OSCAR's unwavering support, Sunaina dreams of forging a successful career as a professional footballer with the backing of her sponsors. The sponsorship has not only enabled her to pursue her passion but also provided her with a pathway to a better future.
“OSCAR means everything to me. OSCAR is my life, my family” - Sunaina
