He Sold His Company to Break Poverty Forever | Dr. Abraham George
What would make a millionaire give up everything to rebuild lives from scratch? 🌍
In this powerful episode of the Super Entrepreneurs Podcast, host Shahid Durrani sits down with Dr. Abraham George, founder of the Shanti Bhavan Children’s Project — a revolutionary school changing the future of India’s poorest children.
