Amazing experience in rural India

I loved my time in Anupshahar and it changed my life! While the school is remote, I felt safe living within school grounds. Everyday I got to spend it with the most amazing group of girls and teachers. This school is quite literally transforming this town and the surrounding villages by educating and uplifting girls. The school is involved in so many programs for the girls and also with the self-help groups within the communities. They allowed me to help where I felt my strengths were. I spent most of my time in the English lab helping older girls become more comfortable speaking English, because most of these girls were going on to higher education in the big cities, like Bangalore and Delhi, where English would be necessary.
