About:
My name is RUHAAN IYER. I am 14 years old and a Grade 8 student at Bombay Scottish School, Mahim.
I have undertaken this campaign because I think being able to impact the life of a student (who possibly is my age or younger) by helping them get this exposure to STEM is incredible. The impact that has been made because of the first team was massive, and they need support to continue to do this. The girls come from underprivileged households, with some living on household incomes as slow as Rs 10000 for the entire family.
We as a team have also decided that to ensure empowerment in the true sense, we have to design outcome-oriented outreach for girls. They have to be imparted better skills and capabilities that will generate confidence and self-esteem to seek independent thinking and financial autonomy. These will go a long way in building equitable relations within the family, the community and other stakeholders in the society.
Please fund my campaign as a simple act of kindness on your part can have a profound impact on a girl's life. It will give them exposure, confidence, and a wonderful life. Let us make a difference together.
