At Nandri, our mission aligns perfectly with the dual challenges faced by the Dalit community in education: firstly, to make education accessible, and secondly, to ensure it is of a quality that prepares Dalits to fully participate as educated citizens of their country. We believe that knowledge and learning are vital for everyone, men and women alike. For generations to come, the education of girls remains crucial. Nandri has been dedicated to fostering the intellectual growth and self-development of women, empowering them to educate their children and instill a sense of self-respect and ambition. Here our some success stories of how our children’s lives hav ebeen changed through education.
**Rabunisha's Resilience**
Rabunisha from Allikondapattu village is a testament to the power of family support. Her father, a woodcutter, resisted societal pressures to marry her off early, choosing instead to support her education. With Nandri's assistance, Rabunisha is currently pursuing her B.Sc Nursing at Hosmat Hospital in Bangalore.
**Cerina’s Courageous Quest**
Cerina, also from Michaelpuram village, has faced extraordinary challenges. With her mother disabled and her father struggling with alcoholism, her prospects seemed dim. Recognizing her plight, Nandri stepped in to support her education. Cerina is now pursuing her first year of Diploma Nursing at Vasantham International Institute in Melsiruvallur.
**Ancy's Ambition Amidst Adversity**
Ancy from Eleanganny village, despite coming from a middle-class family with financial struggles, has shown remarkable determination. Her parents, a nurse and a daily wager, approached Nandri when they were considering discontinuing her education due to financial constraints. Nandri's intervention has enabled Ancy to continue her third year of BPT at KTG Medical College in Bangalore.
