Sustainable SuccessProgram Stories
Sustainable SuccessStories of Transformation
When both my parents lost their jobs, our future seemed uncertain and full of worry. But the training I received through the Campus to Technical Careers (C2TC) Program by TNS India Foundation turned things around. I upskilled in full-stack development, cleared my interviews, and secured a job at Capgemini as a Software Engineer with a ₹4 LPA (~USD 4600) annual CTC. Today, I am not just building my career, I am funding my sister’s education and giving my family the stability we once only hoped for.
With TNS India Foundation’s guidance, I transitioned from chemical farming to using vermicompost and Jeevamrit. This simple shift reduced my input costs by 30% and made my crops visibly healthier. Now, I am planning to expand my farm and I tell other women farmers with confidence: if I can transform my land, so can you.
After being cheated by exporters in the past, I had completely lost faith in the system. But everything changed with the support of TNS India Foundation through the Ankur Uday program. I was able to sell my Crimson grapes through Shetisanjivani FPC a farmer-led collective they helped establish where I am now a proud shareholder. For the first time, I received a proper bill immediately.
Today, I farm with renewed confidence, knowing that I am not just producing, but selling in a fair, transparent, and empowering way.
I had never stepped outside my neighbourhood. But after joining TNS India Foundation’s program, I started putting up stalls at exhibitions, and my sales grew by 50%! Now, I am expanding with new products from Kerala and even looking for a space to open my own store. Winning the ‘Champion Award’ affirmed that my dreams are worth chasing.
I lost my husband and began selling chutney powders to support my children. But it was TNS India Foundation’s program that helped me formalize my business, from packaging and pricing to securing my FSSAI license. Today, my monthly repeat customers have doubled, and I confidently sell across referrals, exhibitions, and apartments.
