“smile is a special word,especially for me this one word has changed my life in different ways. In my life smile is not only a symbolism of happiness for me, it is a feeling of love. The word smile is extra special to me because of my SMILE Manovikas family. I am Asha Durga a volunteer and President of SMILE. I became a part of the smile family in July 2020 when I started teaching online class. It has been an amazing journey where I have learned about myself and my wonderful family I have met at SMILE. I have experienced a great friendship and unbreakable bond with nothing stopping us. Every one of my friends I meet in my SMILE turn into family. My SMIle Manovikas family means the World to me. This journey has taught me skills and morals that I will keep in my heart for ever.”
