Manoj Kumar Sharma S/O Baldevraj Sharma aged 38 years, belongs from Haralalapur, Post-Bajpur, District-Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand. My father is a farmer, and in family there are 10 members. After passing Secondary School Examination, I was not able to pursue my studies further due to meagre income of my family. I also did not have any option for employment/self-employment. Then I came to know about the training programme running under DIAGEO_SCPwD_CSR “Learning for Life” Skill Development program from one of my friends. I got registered at SCPwD registered’s training Centre at Noida. After training of 3 months, i got a job in Taj Corbett Resort & Spa (Hotel) Ramnagar, Nainital, Uttarakhand as a F&B Service Assistant. I am earning Rs.12000/- per month along with accommodation and food. My parents are very happy. I am thankful to my friend to give me this information & making me financially independent & also for boosting my self-confidence.

I thank to DIAGEO India and SCPwD for giving this opportunity and my Parent’s support and their blessings.
