SIGNATURE EVENT: VOICES ON THE RISE, October 19, 2023

AKANKSHA IS ON THE RISE.

On October 19th, 2023, Akanksha was thrilled to host “Voices on the Rise,” a Signature Event in New York City to celebrate our groundbreaking work in providing innovative, high-quality holistic education to children from low-income communities in India.

Our first-ever signature event was a great success, largely due to the enthusiasm, generosity, and involvement of our supporters and well-wishers like you.

Our program presented a carefully curated group of speakers, whose diverse opinions and backgrounds made for an exciting and thought-provoking evening. 

We are grateful to our speakers: Shankar Iyer, Kaneez Surka, Sandeep Rai, Nitin Nohria, Dr. Rebecca Winthrop, Ramesh Srinivasan, Aayati Dash Kar, Kehkashan Basu, Sejal Desai, Saurabh Taneja, Shlok Sadlapurkar, Shruti Belitkar, and Tejashree Jadhav. 

We would like to especially thank our sponsors for their generous contributions. Your support was crucial to the success of Voices on the Rise.
