Gift a scholarship to a meritorious girl student

Impact

Gayatri is from a poor family in Pune. Her father is a small-time distributor at a local confectionary. He struggles to make ends meet for the family every month. Whatever he earns is barely enough to bring food to the family every day. Their situation is tougher as Gayatri’s mother suffers from cancer and a chunk of the money they earn goes towards her treatment. They recognized her intelligence and will to study and her unfortunate financial situation. They awarded her a scholarship of Rs. 12,600 which helped her complete her course. **Gayatri is now successfully completing her Masters** and even volunteers for some of the programs at BNP. **It takes just a little to save the education of young girls like Gayatri.
