Laxmi goes to University of Westminster
Sunday, December 21st, 2008
Varalaxmi Pillai, daughter of a housemaid was nurtured by SAGE Foundation and received a degree from HR College, a prime Educational Institute of Mumbai. Here she is receiving an Achievers’ Award for the best student at the hands of Maya Shahani, Chairperson of SAGE Foundation, and Indu Shahani, Sheriff of Mumbai. Laxmi was offered a scholarship at the London School of Economics but she opted to workfor a year at Thomas Cook to gain some workexperience and international elan. She was given a
makeover to enhance her self esteem by Queenie Dhody, an expert in personal transformation. Groomed and nurtured by her mother’s loving employer Meher Moos, Viralaxmi has now earned a scholarship to the University of Westminster with the Sheriff’s help and will be winging her way there. Good luck, Laxmi. SAGE is indeed proud of you.
