- "Today I'm finally giving back. The promise I made when I left India so long ago is being realized in a rural village outside of Kolkata. Here, a school now stands as a symbol of hope and opportunity. This school is my promise of assurance to children everywhere. But there is still work to do. Piyali Learning Center represents just the first bead in what I hope will become a necklace that winds itself around the world." -Deepa Willingham, Founder and President of PACE Universal
