Ganesh Bharaiya



Age: 14
Address: Shapur Slum



Ganesh is such an inspiring boy who has an incredibly gentle and loving nature. He invited us into his home and while we were waiting for his parents to arrive he insisted on making us tea. He has been part of the Earn N’ Learn project for the past few years and he considers his time there to be his favorite part of the day! He loves it because he gets to do so many different things there, learning, craft, playing, prayer, and he gets to sing while he does it all! Singing is his favorite thing and he hopes to be a professional Singer when he is older. Both of his parents work as cleaners and Ganesh is the second of 5 children, all boys. He used to work as a boot polisher on the street side until one day Jagat-bhai met him, had his shoes shined, and invited him to be a part of the Earn N Learn family. Now, Ganesh’s shoe shining days are over.
