Salim is a bright 13-year-old student living in Odisha, India. She is currently in grade 7, where science, Odia, and English are her favorite subjects. Salim is a creative and active girl who enjoys drawing and playing cricket with her best friend, Goutam. She works hard in school and aspires to become an engineer when she grows up.

She lives in a brick home with a cement roof alongside her parents and brother. Her father works as a daily wage laborer while her mother manages the household. Relying on a single informal income makes meeting everyday basic necessities and funding ongoing school expenses a constant financial struggle.
