Alumni
How does one define change? What are the parameters? At Parikrma, it’s always an even scale: moral compass over better grades, kindness over over-achievement and true calling over rate race. We provide a platform where the poorest are provided with apparatus that create an environment for them to create an identity for themselves and grow into socially responsible citizens.
