Rags to Riches

Children’s Future India/Indias  Barn has been the backbone of my incredible success says, Mangesh Patil. Living a luxurious life was almost an impossible dream come true if CFI/IB would have not understood my awful poor condition and supported me in my higher education. Belonging to a rural village Gagode Budruk (Pen,Raigad) and an underprivileged family where having two times of meals was almost impossible. My father was a farmer; the sole bread earner in the family of 5 was unable to bear the educational expenses along with the daily household expenses. I was passionate from a very young age about my studies and wanted to create a big change in my life by pursuing better education. At the time of taking the main decision of my educational career, CFI/IB with the help of generous donors from Norway helped me out with educational support. I completed my Bachelor of Science MBA in Finance. I went step by step ahead and currently, I am working as an assistant vice president with Century Financial in Dubai UAE. I am earning Rs. 10 Lakh per month. I have owned my own luxurious house and car in Dubai and I am able to provide a luxurious life to my parents, my siblings and my wife. This all happened due to the great helping hands of CFI/IB and thus I will be always thankful to them. The success story of Mangesh describes that the” Son of a king is not only liable to be a king but also son like Mangesh of a poor farmer can be a king by working hard and come out coming out of his poverty.” Mangesh has set an example for the children from his village.
