He Grew Up On Mumbai`s Streets, Now He`s An Entrepreneur Who`s Doing His Bit For Homeless Kids


At first glance the Bombay to Barcelona Library Cafe seems like any other. That is, until you hear its story, you'll be overwhelmed. This cafe near Mumbai International Airport is a gift from a former street child to the children suffering from the same misfortune.



The 36-year-old owner, Amin Sheikh underwent a lot of hardships in his childhood to reach here. Amin had a dream that no one should suffer the atrocities he suffered while growing up, hence this library cafe. He gave opportunities to street kids with equal wages and humane treatment.

"It isn't as easy as it seems. I worked very hard for this and this is only because of the good people I've met that I was able to open this cafe. Marta was the inspiration behind writing a book. Being a doctor she wrote a book to raise funds for making a hospital in India. She made me believe that anyone can write! Then Sahir D’Souza my good friend helped me in writing the book. He corrected the grammar and the spelling errors so that more people would get to know my story and we'll be able to gather funds. I fled home when I was 5 and I haven't looked back since."
