I am a widow and I don’t have any financial support from my family. So I always thought my daughter is a burden to me and wanted to get her married. But Project Vaaradhi supported a lot and protected my daughter from child marriage
My life can be seen as before and after Project Vaaradhi. Now I am enough confident to speak out in the class room and I am able to dream my future in a positive way
With the help of Padala Charitable Trust I completed my Engineering and now working as a deputy manager for BHEL. “Paying it Forward” is the concept that I liked most. To help others same way I received it, I’ve been donating Rs. 10,000/- each year
It is shocking that only 0.1% are graduated with employability skills. So to Pay It Forward I’ve became a volunteer in PCT for conducting training programmes to scholars in employability skills and life skills.
