Journey of Donor Shalini with her Scholar Musfira

At the 2019 Rangeela Fundraiser, Shalini raised her hand to support an SSF scholar. She felt an immediate sense of kinship with Musfira who is from her home state of Bihar, India. Over the next few years, they forged a strong connection through video/phone conversations and SSF updates. Shalini feels humbled to have had the opportunity to provide support and advice, develop a mentor-mentee relationship, and celebrate Musfira’s accomplishments, the most recent being her placement with Goldman Sachs.
