TEACh -To educate a child. Capstone Project | 2008-2009 | Kshitiz Anand - Dr A P J Abdul Kalam, former President of India “ I will not be presumptuous enough to say that my life can be a role model for anybody; but some poor child living in an obscure place in an underprivileged social setting may find a little solace in the way my destiny has been shaped. It could perhaps help such children liberate themselves from the bondage of their illusory backwardness and hopelessness.” -Dr A P J Abdul Kalam, former president of India. Capstone Project | 2008-2009 | Kshitiz Anand
