Empowering Dreams. Changing Lives

Introducing Ravalli, a determined young woman from Racherla village near 3F Industries Limited. Despite challenges, Ravalli's spirit stayed strong. With her parents working as agricultural laborers and her husband in Hyderabad, she aimed to improve their financial situation.

Thanks to the Rameshwar Balakrishna Goenka (RBG) Trust, Ravalli found an opportunity for self-improvement through training in Tadepalligudem. With determination, she completed a beauty therapy course.
