Featured Story

A journey completed

From an ashram in the Andamans to a nursing diploma in Chennai.

I'm R. P. Varsha, a resident of Pranab Kanya Sangha, Andaman and Nicobar Islands. I lost my parents in my childhood so I came to the ashram in my early age. After completing my 12th in science stream, I was interested in nursing. I did not get a chance in Sri Vijaya Puram so I had to travel to Chennai.

Fortunately, I was supported by the Lahsiv Foundation who willingly took the responsibility to bear my entire course and hostel fees for a duration of 3 years. I have completed my General Nursing Midwifery (Diploma) course successfully from Apollo School of Nursing, Chennai. The motto of my life is to serve mankind with the profession of nursing.
