Ghandhua Sardar used to stay with her mother, father, four sisters and a brother at No. 2, Sonakhali, Village: Phool Malancho, Thana-Bashanti, South 24 Parganas District which is far away from Kolkata. At that time her father was working as a farmer on a landlords' farm and his earnings were the only source of income for the family.
At a tender age, while she was in the primary school, she lost her parents. The family lost its only earning member and slipped into uncertainty and poverty. At this point her Uncle requested the Landlord to take Ghandua to Kolkata where she could work for them. As fate would have it she left her home with the Landlord and landed up at his Kolkata home to work as a helper. When she was 17, through one of her friends she came to know about the Life Skill Training Unit of Hope Kolkata Foundation. Thus, through her own efforts she sought admission in the HKF Life Skill Tailoring Unit.
