Abstract: Graduating with first class honors, Vishrut Jain embarked on a career in consulting, financial services, arts and digital transformation. During a hike in Nepal with his wife Priya, he realized that the 8-year old girl hand washing sheets in cold water was a little slave girl sold for $130. He co-founded ‘Kanya’, a charity that adopted 18 extremely poor girls and ensured holistic nutrition, healthcare and education for them. Vishrut lived for 44 years but effortlessly packed another 44 years in accomplishments and impact.
