Widow, Health Crusader, Icon. Swades SwaRakshaMitra (SRM)
Becoming a widow at a young age can certainly set back a life but there are a few who take such setbacks in their stride. Vidya Vinayak Kule is one such shining example. After completing the Swades Foundations’ SRM program, she became aware of the number of TB deaths in her village and became an Anti-TB crusader. Vidya identified Gulab Ghag. who had recently lost her husband to TB and re-initiated a referral. Gulab was found to be seriously ill, but today, thanks to Vidya she is well on the way to recovery. Vidya indeed is a true life-saver.
