This ex-investment banker is helping tribal children in Madhya Pradesh secure better career opportunities
The residential school, started by Priya Nadkarni and Digvijay Singh in 2016, is home to over 300 tribal students. It offers education, shelter, and nutrition and trains the students in football, farming, and technology.
According to Nadkarni, these remote villages don’t have proper access to education or any role models to encourage kids to pursue learning. Further, a dearth of good teachers, limited access to technology, and rampant malnutrition have made learning more challenging.
