Career in Social Work Activities

I have done my schooling from Urmi School and Convent of Jesus and Mary Girl’s High School, both located in Vadodara. I received Young Contributors Award in 2018 from Institute of Leadership and Governance, The Maharaja Sayajirao University.
I’m currently pursuing my Masters Degree in Social Work (MSW) from Maharaja Sayajirao University. I have done my Bachelors in Zoology/Animal Biology along with certified courses in Tourism & Travel, Health & Fitness Management and Anchor, Host & Announcer.
Achievements and Awards for social work.
I have received many awards. I’m the only one from India to receive Raksha Mantri Padak Award in 2019 and 1st woman to receive it from Gujarat. I was also awarded with a Governor's Medal for heroic act which saved the life of a human on 4th February 2019. I have been a part of TV reality series MTV Roadies Real heroes. I achieved 2nd position in 400 meter freestyle in Khel Mahakumbh 2017. Adding to all, I was a former Cadet Captain 2 Gujarat Naval Unit NCC, Vadodara. NCC best cadet 2017 – ‘C’ certificate highest marks in Gujarat. On got place in “Hall of Fame” at DG NCC, Delhi. Connecting my love for animals, I run a community, Humans with Humanity which deals in helping animals who are in need.
There’s more about being a social worker than just money.
I love what I do and now at this point, I’m really waiting for some more volunteers to seek this kind of profession not just for the sake of money but also for doing well to others. I saved the life of a drowning person at Rasalpur and that work just not made me famous but also gave me satisfaction of doing well to others.
I belong to a common family in which I have my father Vipul Sharma, my mother Shital Sharma and my cousin Sunny Sharma. They always supported me in my work, in fact they also helped me in this good deed.
All the above awards and recognitions are important for me but at the same time, my work gives me immense pleasure and motivation to go on saving others and making them smile. It’s not about choosing a career option being doctor or engineer and then only helping the society. We can be in other professions also and serve others.
