What a wonderful document and so beautifully put together. Well done to you and your team. Having visited India myself and seen the poverty, I can fully comprehend the impact Nirdhan has on the lives of the people in the projects. I’m sure The Annual Review will get very positive results.

It was a great pleasure to be involved in Nirdhan at the early stages and we are very proud at the Apax Foundation that we were. We picked Nirdhan primarily because we were impressed with Olly – impressed with her enthusiasm, impressed with what she had done, impressed with her ideas and she just gave a really dynamic presentation about what she wanted to achieve in India and what she saw Nirdhan becoming.
