He thought his life would always be episodes of mixed emotions and constant apprehensions. Contrary to this, it took a U-turn, and he woke up from the slumber of sadness, the sun of his life rose again, casting its bright rays upon him.
He named this sun of his life as ‘Sunrise Public School’, a place that was incorporated by the Miles2Smile & Shaagird Foundation to help the children that are deprived of their education. Armaan got enrolled in the school, and he found happiness again. He is a seven-year-old enthusiastic kid in grade 1 now and loves to draw when he finds himself free.
At Sunrise, he explores new things and lives a life meant for his age. He reads English alphabet with excitement and wins hearts. His laughter echoes through the quiet corridors of the school and lights up the entire building.
