Working with GKSM NGO has been an incredibly rewarding experience. The impact we made in spreading cyber security awareness and empowering women in rural areas has been profound. I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such meaningful work and look forward to continuing to support these important initiatives. I am thankful to my college , in which curriculum has these type of working opportunity.

After my 3rd semester of engineering, I completed a rural internship at GKSM NGO, located in Vyara, Gujarat. During my time there, I had the opportunity to work on several impactful projects aimed at improving the lives of people in rural areas. Our main focus areas were cyber security awareness and women empowerment. Here’s an overview of the work we did and the experiences I had.
