Ep3: "A Whiff of Fresh Air"

Evicted twice and threatened with closure in the late 1990s, Future Hope needed some good fortune. When all seemed lost, a chance meeting on a street corner in central Kolkata would shape the future... an emotional reunion awaits.And so we arrive at Rowland Road, the school’s current home. In the heavy pollution of the city centre, walking through the gates comes as “a whiff of fresh air”, according to Principal Meenu Patodia! We’re introduced to many of her staff as we take a tour of the buzzing, high-achieving school campus in the company of Future Hope CEO Sujata Sen. We discover how hundreds of willing students are squeezed into every corner. They have built on the roof; and built again on top of that! This expanding organisation has outgrown its home; the only solution is to move. But can they achieve the dream?
