Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Pragya
Project Pragya has significantly boosted college access for rural high school students near Ashoka University in Asawarpur and Jharoda villages, India. By partnering with campus clubs, we've guided around 100 students to secure government schemes and scholarships, impacting 100 households indirectly. Our comprehensive resource base and capacity-building sessions for volunteers have empowered students and volunteers alike. The project's focus on understanding community needs continues to bridge the gap in educational opportunities, reducing inequality amongst the underserved communities of India.
