I am impressed with the work done by the team at the Child Support Centres which is creating a conducive environment for learning for these girl children. It is good to see that these centres have improved their competencies, broken barriers, improved personalities and the girls now are empowered and have a voice.

Two years ago, I had the opportunity to visit and meet some of the girl children attending the Child Support Centres in Hyderabad and Chennai. Today I am moved to see them express very confidently and share their aspirations. This was a very emotional moment for me. Congrats Capgemini and the local partners who work with us. Big thanks to all of you for this wonderful project.
