Sharada Gurung: Unmarried yet a mother of 100s, this woman exemplifies work is worship

Sharada Gurung is now 76. She is called ‘mother’ not just by a few of her children but also by hundreds of others. Her children are living in different parts of the world.

For 40 years since 1971, Gurung dedicated her life to take care of children at SOS Children’s Village, Bhaktapur. Many of them are today scattered all over the world. She is happy with the success of the children, who were orphans, that she brought up with her own hands for more than a decade.
