run like a complex network of nervous system and the scraped walls in his room silently scream of a prosperous past upon which the house-a derelict structure-still exists. 18-year-old Spandan lives here with his parents and a four-year-old sister.<\/p><p>In 2011, a sudden downturn in their flourishing printing business brought a trove of financial woes for Spandan\u2019s family, when he was only seven years old.<\/p><p>Enrolled into the sponsorship programme a year later in 2012, Spandan is now a student of standard 12 in one of the most reputable schools in the city, preparing for his medical entrance examinations.<\/p><p>For Spandan, clearing high school examinations is the topmost priority. A decent score will enable him to inch closer to his dream of an admission into a medical school to become a doctor. Spandan\u2019s intention of becoming a doctor stems from his memories of the past when he witnessed the passing of close relatives in need of proper treatment. He wants to become a surgeon. He firmly believes that by saving even one life with medical intervention, he will be able to effect lowering the death count, even if by just a fraction.<\/p><p>Resolute, yet practical in his approach, Spandan knows clearing the entrance examination will be a tough climb but such challenges are not deterrent to his dreams. However, in any instance of a different outcome, he will opt for alternatives like nursing and healthcare-related work.<\/p><p>In his free time, Spandan learns how to play guitar from YouTube and draws portraits. Even the diagrams in his biology copy resemble more pieces of artwork than mere illustrations.<\/p><p>Spandan finds daily conversations the most meaningful way to spend time with his family. He has a strong desire to meet his donor and express his gratitude for the selfless support, at least once in his lifetime.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4c5fae2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4c5fae2\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-377cb1e\" data-id=\"377cb1e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-5b24404 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5b24404\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-b1d177b\" data-id=\"b1d177b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6250151\" data-id=\"6250151\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b8b0f2d elementor-widget elementor-widget-sina_title\" data-id=\"b8b0f2d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"sina_title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sina-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sina-title-desc\">Empowering Youth through \nthe Youth Resource Centre: A \nBeacon of Learning and \nSupport in Kolkata<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .sina-title -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d91ccff e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d91ccff\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10b0d0a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"10b0d0a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1e61d3a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1e61d3a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Soumideepa, a 20-year-old resident of Jorasanko, Kolkata, is grateful for the Youth Resource Centre (YRC). She first came to the YRC for a three day career counseling workshop, and she was impressed by the facilities and the staff.<\/p><p>&#8220;I felt amazing to know that this building is a Centre meant for us,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Where we will be able to spend our most vital time, and benefit by learning, which we can apply in our careers.&#8221; Soumideepa now regularly visits the YRC to study, use the computer lab, and participate in the various workshops and programmes that are offered. She says that these sessions have helped her to stay focused on her studies and to enhance her skills.<\/p><p>&#8220;I am happy that we have a building to ourselves&#8221; she said. &#8220;It is a different opportunity altogether.&#8221; Social Mobiliser, Ujjal Rai, says that the Centre has been a great resource for the youth in the community.<\/p><p>&#8220;I feel, this Centre is a medium for our youth to focus when they come here,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The youth themselves have provided feedback that when they step inside, they feel at home. They know the centre has been made for them.&#8221; The YRC offers a variety of programmes and services, including career counselling, computer training, and job placement assistance. It also has a library, a games room, and a lounge where young people can relax and socialise.<\/p><p>&#8220;Firstly, I would like to thank all associated in the efforts to shape this facility we are in today,&#8221; says Dipanwita Ghosh, Community Centre Coordinator from Narkeldanga. &#8220;Also I want to add, the youth of Jorasanko and Narkeldanga are benefitting from this Centre. Our youth dream of a Centre like this near their own Community centres as well, especially for those who are living far away from this Centre.&#8221;<\/p><p>The YRC is committed to provide a safe and supportive environment where the youth can learn, grow, and develop their skills. The centre is a testament to the power of community and the importance of investing in young people.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Impact Stories &#8220;From Fractured Lines to Healing Hands: Spandan&#8217;s Journey of Hope and Determination.&#8221; The fractured lines on the floor run like a complex network of nervous system and the scraped walls in his room silently scream of a prosperous past upon which the house-a derelict structure-still exists. 18-year-old Spandan lives here with his parents and a four-year-old sister.
