“We were formally established in 1990 and we focus on three major issues: Women’s Development - career training for the pass outs, Education- scholarships for under privileged girls and workshops, and lastly, health - dental and heart related awareness programs as well as camps. Our fund is raised through concerts, movie premieres and parties,” informed Pradhan.
