Lighting Young Minds

Knowledge, when shared, realizes its truest potential. Bearing testimony to this fact are three young women in UP, who against all odds, decided to open a school for children, dispensing the education themselves.

Aged 19, 19 and 18, Tabassum Bano, Tarannum Bano, and Rubina Bano took on the mantle of enlightening young minds with gift of education. They initially faced some resistance from the villagers. However, the women gradually managed to transform their animosity into a helpful one, so much so that the villagers arranged for electricity and related fittings.

Nearly 250 children from the age group of 7 to 15 flock this school. It is remarkable how together; these women pulled this off and how.

Imagine what 49% of the country who are women, can do if the entire country shared the same thought as well?
