“Vani recollects her journey with Mallika with fondness and a smile. “I was a widow with two little children and with very limited exposure to the world. I was fearful and without hope but now after ten years, I am strong and bold. This place is like my home and people around encourage me more than my own family do. Skills I learnt now sustain my home. The most exciting thing is that the dreams I had for my children have come true. All three of them are now in college”.
