Dr. Kiran Modi – Founder & Trustee – Udayan Care
“Deepak Sharma – A Caregiver at heart who found his wings with us”
I first met him and his wife in the autumn of 2009 through the Teach for India programme.
It was such a joyous experience when I was selected for the Udayan Shalini Fellowship programme out of some 300 girls following a round of tests and interviews.
Initially, I had many questions in mind about the programme, but then I thought it best to put my inquisitiveness to rest and take this as a stepping stone towards a brighter future and career.
Over the five years that I have been associated with the fellowship, I have become motivated, and confident, improved my communications skills, and have also learnt to manage my time properly.
I have also learnt the importance of multitasking, which is very much required these days. I am able to now manage my study along with my job.
There were some sessions we had on goal setting, which I really liked. It taught me how to focus on my tasks and achieve them within the defined time limit.
I have been fortunate enough to get someone as Mr. Deepak Sharma, whom I now call uncle, as my mentor at the Udayan Shalini Fellowship programme. He has been a big inspiration in my life. He has been a guide, a mentor, and has selflessly supported me in my studies and career aspirations.
I have now graduated as a mentor didi in the Udayan Shalini Fellowship programme, and as such, have newer responsibilities towards my mentees. It is a new challenge and a big responsibility.
I consider it my good fortune to be a part of the Udayan Shalini Fellowship programme.

“Deepak Sharma – A Caregiver at heart who found his wings with us”
I first met him and his wife in the autumn of 2009 through the Teach for India programme.
The first time I met Mr. Deepak Sharma (now I call him papa), I was a little scared just like every other kid at Udayan Care.We were all uncertain and curious as to what kind of a person he will be?
My life changed for the better since I first met him (Mr. Deepak Sharma), and thanks to God’s blessings, it is still going great now. He has and even now is playing a very important role in my life and of my sisters’ life.
