I want to introduce you guys to a true Actionist® Neha Gupta. She is the fonder of Empower Orphans and she’s only 14!! She was 9 years old, volunteering at orphanages in India with her family when her life was significantly changed. She realized that the 200 children who lived at the orphanage didn’t have enough money to gain a proper education and she was heartbroken to think that these children had no parents to guide, protect or love them.

This provocative film examines and challenges the status quo by highlighting the risks, reasons, and realities students face within the college hook up culture.
