    Mam, I am forheen ahmed,a student of Sophy Mercy Memorial School in class 6. I have a family of 3 members:- My mother, Mrs. Ivy Ahmed, my sister Miss.Afsah Ahmed and including me. But unfortunately my father had died on 12th of February. Now my mother is in the mature stage of pregnancy.

    I want to introduce to me. I was born in 2000, 19th July at Sivasagar , Assam. In the age of 2 and half years I have landed to the field of computer. I have completed the course of “Swift Smart” in NIIT, Simalguri at the age of 3 years. Then I have completed the courses of D.T.P, HTML, LINUX, UML….. at a very young age. Then I have completed the course of JAVA in NIIT,Sivasagar at the age of five years. At last , I have completed the course of “SCJP(SUN CERTIFIED JAVA PROGRAMMER)” at the age of 7 years. I can be a world record also. I have got the Certificate of the programmer of SCJP and a card to be a member of SUN MICROSYSTEMS. We asked them that If I am a World Recorder but they told us that it is not a work of theirs to look up who is the world recorder. So , we lost all the hope to prove me as a world recorder. Now, I am 11 years old and reading at the school of SOPHY MERCY MEMORIAL School in Class VI.

    But, today I want only a help that you please help us with your effort in any way as you can. As my father was a heart patient of POST PPI so he had died in 12th Feb , 2012 at a heart attack . He was just an business man but was a great man who make my life a successful. Though my mother is in this stage, she can’t do any job even. We have invested all our savings in treatment for my father. Now, we are as poor as an beggar. So please help me to feed my family. So, please help me in any way so that we can lead a simple life with my mother, my sister and my feature sister/brother.
