Kiran Scholar Alumnae

Diksha Pache, Nagpur, 2012 graduate

We had an amazing meet on that day. Thank you Persistent Family for it. This scholarship has given me all the confidence and made me believe in myself. This is helping me in my career too. I would certainly like to give back by guiding a girl to excel in her future.
