This hero inspires girls to believe in themselves
By Bill Gates | March 22, 2022
Hi Insiders,
As a middle school student in India, Sudha Varghese was paging through a magazine when she saw a photo that changed her life. It was a picture of a ramshackle hut on a roadside in Bihar State.
The people who lived there, she learned, were the Musahar. In India’s earlier caste system, they were viewed as the “untouchables.” They could not own land and worked as poorly paid farm laborers. Most never had the opportunity to go to school.
Sudha dedicated her life to improving their lives. Sudha focused her efforts on the Musahar women and girls.
She opened a school for girls, offering free lessons in everything from math to karate.
Most importantly, she teaches students to believe in themselves and their potential for greatness.
You can read more about Sudha and her incredible work in India here.
Thanks so much for being an Insider.
