Speaking on the occasion, Actress Lakshmi Manchu said, “It’s so humbling for us at Teach for Change to reach at this stage where we are planning the 8th edition. Education is our fundamental right and no child should be left behind. At Teach for Change we have taken this a step further and strived to achieve effective education that can translate into true empowerment of lives. This fundraiser is a platform that can help bridge their basic educational needs with our willingness to support their cause. I am so grateful to all my industry friends, family and colleagues who have time and again supported this cause for Teach for Change and have come together to support and celebrate.”

Designer Varun Chakkilam said, “Lakshmi is a powerhouse of energy and anything she touches is always the real deal. The show is just one evening but has a ripple effect round the year. When Lakshmi showed me the projects and plans under Teach for Change, I was overwhelmed. It is really humbling to be a part of something that is larger than all of us. I’m glad my clothes will change the destiny of so many souls”.
