" " I am excited to be part of the Millennium Fellowship because it will allow me to connect with a cohort of like-minded peers working towards bringing positive change in society and making the world a better place for all. It will enable me to grow my passions more meaningfully and effectively serve those around me.

Millennium Fellowship Project: Danish
"Danish" is a project aimed at empowering marginalized children and their families in the slum communities near my campus by raising awareness about the importance of education. Many of these children have talent, curiosity, and confidence but lack the guidance and support to overcome challenges in their educational journey.
Through collaboration with the Seekh Foundation, Danish focuses on conducting sessions highlighting how education can shape their future and open opportunities. The project also encourages inclusivity, equality, and harmony.
