ANNA’s parents died at a young age, so to continue his education, he enrolled in the Ramakrishna Mission Home, a school and shelter for orphans and underprivileged kids. At the Mission, ANNA immediately became an active member and made it his new home. At a time when all hope seemed to be lost, the Mission gave ANNA so many great opportunities, and for these ANNA was forever grateful.

Because of all the opportunities the Mission gave ANNA, he dedicated his life to educating disadvantaged and underprivileged kids. He was greatly respected as an educator, as well as in all other aspects of his life.
