                                                                          –Shilpa Nath,S5 ECE
·          “Even though they lack in money, they were rich with love and compassion.There was a joy of sharing and caring from both sides.I am happy because,I learned to find happiness even in little things.Amrita Serve’s intension is to transform rural villages in India,but I can say that in a way this internship had transformed me to a great extent and I am happy for the changes”. 
                                                                          –Chaithanya S, S5 EEE
·         “More than what we could contribute to them,we’ve learnt many things from them;this has been indeed a life changing experience for everyone who has visited a village under the 101 village project. I look back and wonder how this internship program has transformed the life of villagers towards self-empowerment and my life as a student in improving different types of critical skills”.
