School prepares her for a million opportunities to become a significant contributor to a country’s economic growth.

I went there to meet the locals in an area where one of our partner organisations was working. Chandni was still very much in her early teens. She came running to meet me, highly recommended as one of the upcoming singers of her village. There was something in the vibrant smile she wore, as she sang a couple of songs for me. By the time she stopped singing, I knew that I wanted to know about her journey.
