Indrani was a major force in the world-wide fight against human trafficking, and the loving and generous and wise guiding light to all of us at sanlaap. Priyanka handed me her ipad, and i snapped this shot of the staff at sanlaap’s 30th anniversary party.Ī few short weeks after this party, we lost our dear indrani sinha, founder of sanlaap. Shortly before i left india for the usa, sanlaap celebrated its 30 year anniversary!! i hope you feel great about what sgub is doing in the lives of these survivor girls. Thank you thank you thank you everyone who supports sgub. I asked rajni* how survivor girl ukulele band had impacted her life. and yet here i am, performing on a stage!” Neela* said, “this is not even my country. the girls were having such a great time with rehearsals, getting all dressed up for the show. Walking off the stage to a standing ovation - their feet are barely touching the floor!!īy the time i was about ready to leave india and head back to the usa, survivor girl ukulele band had performed four times. So give a listen to twenty-two girls at the american center in kolkata singing the “survivor girl ukulele band” song, written by ed tree. “survivor girl ukulele band song!” saheli* said. “what was the best part of the program,” i asked the girls the day after.
my friend julie schofield, a fulbright-nehru student researcher, invited sgub to perform at her event, “creating possibilities: empowering through the arts.” the sgub girls delivered a program of eleven songs!! they were the hit of the evening, and yep!! they felt empowered through the arts!! This first recording is of twenty-two girls on stage at the american center in kolkata. Survivor girl ukulele band project 2016 - back to kolkata!!! is well underway!!īut before i get to 2016, please give a listen to some recordings from sgub 2015! sgub gave eight performances in kolkata!!! this was a huge achievement for everyone! for me, for sanlaap india’s shelter home staff - who partnered so beautifully with sgub every step of the way, for the girls, who practiced, and prepared, and performed in front of enthusiastic audiences, and for the many around the world who support survivor girl ukulele band!!
