Kolkata, Jul 27 (IBNS): Talha Sahedar Rahaman, a six-year old from Howrah in West Bengal, took a step closer to his aspiration of becoming a footballer, as the latest recipient of Colgate Scholarship Offer.
Rahaman, whose father works as a delivery man, will attend a football coaching class with the scholarship.
Said Rahaman's father, “The scholarship money helped us in a big way. Talha dreams to be a footballer and win medals for his country. With this scholarship money I will now be able to enrol him in football coaching classes. I would like to thank Colgate for being there at a time when I needed help for my child’s future.”
