Working Together in an Indian Village

Travel to Kalumbut, a small rural village in South India, to join Santosh and Syamala's family and community as they start working together to bring change. Meet Sripatham, a community development worker who remembers what it's like to be hungry and poor, and cares enough to make sure kids like Santosh and Syamala have a chance at a better life.
