Meet Sumi
Sumi is 12 years old. At the age of just 3 Sumi lost both her legs in a train accident due to living in such close proximity to the railway tracks in Tejgaon. When she was a child her mother walked out on her and her family to marry another man. Today, thanks to CSID’s on-going support, Sumi has the chance to go to school. Sumi now lives with her father and her grandmother and helps them with housework and takes care of her little brother. She recently participated in a wheelchair race and won, which she feels very proud of.
