In the heart of India, Project Puthri, an initiative driven by Nippon Paint India, empowers young girls from underserved communities to break the cycle of poverty and build brighter futures. Through mentorship, skill development, and career guidance, these girls are gaining the confidence and tools to pursue their dreams.
