SCMHRD, one of the top B-schools in the country, houses not only the crème de la crème of the minds across the world, but also the most talented minds. Few of these talented minds came together 8 years back and decided to help solve a world problem of grave concern, seen yet unseen by many. The problem is that of trafficking of humans. They named themselves S.H.A.P.A.T.H., which means to take a pledge, and they did exactly that, they took a pledge to act. Act for Awareness, Prevention and Action against trafficking of humans. This initiative of theirs led them to associate with an NGO, Saheli, which helps nurture abandoned kids of trafficked women and a few others.

There is often a paradox involved with learning. The more you learn, the lesser you feel that you know. As your learning keeps increasing, so does your humility. You know, what you know not of. And that is the greatest gift to the learner; the ability to know what you don’t know. And this result is something which comes to you in your absolutely open state of mind.
A fine day in April changed my life and not only for good but for the best!
