He also threw light on Lotus Petal Foundation and the impact the foundation has created since inception. "We are talking about the social impact of enabling children from disadvantaged backgrounds with equal opportunities. At Lotus Petal Foundation, our focus is to provide complete upward social mobility. So, when alumni whose parents are daily wage earners, who haven't been to school, goes to work in a reputed global organization as a software testing executive, earning more than 2x the per capita income, has her financial independence as a priority then we say, yes this is an impact. The duration of our impact is lifelong and permanent. This requires single-minded focus, innovation, and working on all dimensions of not only education but health & nutrition, livelihoods, imparting 21st-century skills, counseling for students and their parents, and after they start their jobs hand-holding them for a few years. It takes time, but the impact is lifelong."Lotus Petal Foundation is a non-profit organisation founded in November 2011 with the primary objective to create equal opportunities for underprivileged children living in urban and semi-urban areas. What started as a modest school with seven children in a shopping arcade is a movement that brings together individuals and organizations from all across the world who donate, volunteer and work towards providing private-school-like education, nutritious meals, healthcare, skill development and livelihood options to the children and young adults living in the urban slums of Gurugram, India."This is just the beginning. We have a long way to go. Our impact today can be scaled, with the same depth & duration to over 10,000 students on this campus within a few years, and through our digital platform, it can spread across the country. There are many out-of-school children in our country and a large percentage of those in the system lag in learning outcomes. However right now right here on this campus, we can solve it for thousands of children and students every year," he said.The event also saw the inauguration of the community kitchen at Lotus Petal Sr. Secondary School, Dhunela which was inaugurated by Ajay Singh, Director, GTPL and Anil Bothra, CFO, GTPL. The construction of this two-story, industrial building is supported by GTPL Hathway Ltd.

The food is prepared hygienically and according to a weekly menu plan that takes into account the nutritional requirements of the students and includes a well-balanced mixture of grains and pulses.Lotus Petal Foundation is a non-profit organisation founded in November 2011 with the primary objective to create equal opportunities for underprivileged children living in urban and semi-urban areas.
