The ultimate goal is to enable them to carve out meaningful and dignified lives, transforming them into valuable contributors to society.

Over 250 trainees from various courses offered at the center were honoured with course completion certificates, marking their eligibility to pursue professional careers. As part of the celebration, a Fashion Show showcased the creativity of MasterG Fashion Designing Course graduates, who confidently walked the ramp adorned in self-designed attire. This tradition, followed since the inception of the course, provides trainees with a captivating glimpse into the glamorous world of fashion.

At SDC, our active contribution aims to equip rural youth with the skills and integrity necessary to navigate the challenges of the world and thrive. We remain hopeful that these empowered youth will one day achieve success in their lives, becoming integral contributors to the progress of our nation.
