On a recent visit to India, Satya Ravi took the opportunity to see the work of Life Project 4 Youth (LP4Y) in the TDC Chennai.
During her time there, she was able to learn more about the organization, have lunch with some of the women, and participate in a question and answer session.
Satya said of her visit : “I spent a day with these courageous young women, and I was touched by their commitment to changing the course of their lives against all odds. They live in government subsidized housing provided initially to Tsunami survivors. They are seeking the blessing/permission/acceptance from spouses and in-laws in a joint family construct and trying to win hearts and minds in their quest for financial independence. They certainly benefit from all the encouragement and support from
mentors. The funds from generous donors, as the pictures demonstrate, have supported the creation of a safe space for them (and their young ones) as well as computers and other valuable resources.”
