18-year-old Sadiya was born in Deora, a small village in eastern India, but moved to the city of Mumbai when she was 3. In 2020, when the pandemic(疫情) broke out, her father's small business was forced to close temporarily and the family returned to her ancestral village to wait out the pandemic.
However, it greatly shocked her when she found that attending school was uncommon in Deora, where almost half of the villagers couldn't read. Unable to afford textbooks, many families often withdrew their children from schools. They didn't wish to educate their children, many of whom had to work in the fields with their parents. even though some had the desire to read.
Sadiya, the college girl with a strong sense of social responsibility, had been trying to seize opportunities to open doors for others. Fluent in Hindi, Urdu, and English, she often spoke at inter-college events on the right to education and enjoyed a high reputation among college students.
Used to taking on challenges, Sadiya was determined to do something for the village children. One day last July, Sadiya sat down with her family elders and put forward the idea of setting up a library. Many shook their heads in disagreement—this wasn't how a young girl should spend her time.
After many discussions, Sadiya finally convinced them and gained access to a relative's guesthouse, mending it with $67 that she'd won in public-speaking competitions. With help from her uncle, Akbar, and cousin, Nawaz, she got to work. Walls were repainted, the bamboo roof was repaired and lights and bookshelves were fixed, and the room was filled with chairs and a long table. Pictures on the walls brightened the space. Looking at the newly-decorated "library", Sadiya couldn't hold back her excitement while imagining the children reading books there.
