I worked at Snehalaya NGO for a long time and then returned to Solapur to be there for my parents. But when I saw the misery in my neighbourhood, I didn't hesitate for long and started campaigning for education and healthcare. Without a penny to my name and without a vehicle, I went from slum to slum teaching poor children.
With the help of friends, we were able to donate school uniforms, school supplies and books to children, as well as sewing machines to women.
I myself come from Shelagi Village from a very normal family.
Like many other NGOs, we also depend on material and financial donations to provide the poorest with the necessary help. We contact many women and arrange many programmes at festivities, inspire women and children and explain how important education and healthcare are.
I travel around Shelagi, Bale and Kegaon, visiting places where women and children live in poverty to teach the children there.
My name is Pramila Ubale and since 2015, I have been working tirelessly with my NGO PRERANA to help the poor in my neighbourhood.
