Education request for a physically challenged girl from Madurai

HM got a request for help from a physically challenged girl, she has got medical certificate stating that she has 60% disability. She hails from a village near Madurai. Her mother has expired long back, her father recently met with an accident and lost his legs in it. The girl is very interested in studies and has a good attitude. Coming from a very poor background, she is desperately in need of a job and hence has joined for this B.Ed course (1 year course).

Thirukumaran (through whom we got to know about this request - he is a volunteer in Disha trust) has already talked to few schools in nearby areas and they are willing to take her as a teacher once she completes the course successfully. Also there is a high possibility that she can get the Govt job based on physically challenged quota. The college founder himself has given about Rs. 15000 from his foundation, which she has used for the hostel fees and books.

Out of the total fees of 50k, she has managed about 35k with the help of 3 trusts; She is in need of about Rs. 15000. HM has given Rs. 10000 towards her fees on 20th Dec.
