Chiragi Solanki and her team won the 2021 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 (Cultual Project). The award is for the activities of their charity Haqooq: Aspire For More.
“I would like to thank all the inclusive schools who have worked with me to teach differently abled children a new art in the form of Indian dancing and interactive workshops. We educated students on cultural activities including dancing, music, henna and rangoli,” said Chiragi in a statement.
“Our workshops have provided students with a wide array of skills that can be applied to other aspects of their lives and given opportunities to overcome fears and perform in front of large audiences with confidence. A small group of these students have already achieved independence through being able to work alongside me to teach in other schools. Again, a big thank you to everyone involved in this project! Specially Shaheen Akhtar.”
