About Chandani G
Chandani aims to spread Kindness and change society’s attitude towards stray animals.
Chandani’s venture, Kindness: The Universal Language of Love, aims to advance empathetic living in her community by helping people change their attitude towards stray animals. A stray pup she was taking care of was run over by a speeding car and that got Chandani to think about the larger issue of lack of empathy. She started by creating a rescue and rehabilitation centre and has expanded her work to help local communities become more empathetic to the needs of stray animals. The team now runs regular drives for vaccination, deworming, and providing fresh food and water. The team also works on educational campaigns and collaborates with local companies and schools in their efforts.
