The
sapling called Disha has blossomed over the years. This
blooming sapling has guided hundreds of underprivileged
children with its fragrance. Disha flowered from the
germination of a beautiful idea inspired by a humble
request. A domestic helper of Divyayan, a prestigious
Montessori school, asked the principal, Ms. Neena Singh,
for a financial loan to fund the tuitions of her son.
This set the thought process rolling.
Ms. Neena Singh internalised the problem and resolved
to proactively address this social quandary. Just as
children of rich parents needed help to cope with their
studies, so did socially underprivileged children. They
needed special guidance as most of them were First Generation
Learners and were more vulnerable to undesirable social
elements. Moreover, the development of India is directly
correlated to the welfare of all children- irrespective
of their caste and creed. |
