题目内容:
The story of Sindhutai Sapkal is the story of rebirth and the love of children who nobody else wanted. The 68-year-old woman has raised over 1,400 orphans (孤儿), offering them not just food and shelter, but also the love of a real family. Her amazing work has earned her over 750 awards, and the nickname "Mother of Orphans".
Sindhutai Sapkal's work was inspired by her own hardships growing up. Born into a poor family, she had to abandon her education at age 9, and was married to a 20-year-old man when she was just 10 years old. Ten years later, when she was expecting a Why, she was thrown out of the house by her husband, and because everyone, even her family, turned her away, she had to give birth in a cow house.
To support herself and her newborn daughter, Sapkal had to beg and sing at train stations for food. It was during these difficult times that she met many other abandoned youths who were struggling just like she was. She would share her food with them and provide as much care as she could. Some of them started following her around,and that, she says, is how her large family started to form without her even realizing.
Over the last 40 years, Sindhutai Sapkal has traveled to countless villages, giving speeches until her throat was dry, trying to collect donations to provide a better life for her adopted children. She managed to build four orphanages, where many abandoned children have grown into respectable members of society. She makes it her duty to keep the kids on the right path in life and offer them the love and care of a real family.
"I was raised believing that blood relations don't really mean much. For me, my understanding of a home was based on what I had seen-my mother and her large family," Sindhutai's daughter, Mamata, says. "After completing my degrees, I have been working with Mai(mother)."
