Snehal Devidas Gawli

Campaign Snehal Goal: $1200

Age: 14 years

Snehal, a humble and intelligent girl, was diagnosed with a hearing impairment at the age of 3. Although doctors recommended a cochlear implant, her family could only afford to fit her with the hearing aids. When she wasn’t making adequate progress in her prior school, her parents brought her to MaiLele school, where her true academic journey began.

Thanks to her aptitude and her teachers’ efforts, Snehal has excelled in school as well as sports, arts and dance.

Despite her severe hearing impairment, Snehal tries to dance with a flawless rhythm. In 2022, she participated in the national dance event for differently-abled individuals called “Divya Kalashakti” held in Mumbai.

With the more powerful hearing aid, Snehal will certainly progress better.
