Hunar is an initiative of Miles2Smile, dedicated to fostering meaningful skill development among young children and bridging the gap between education and employability. The program is built on the belief that every child possesses unique talents, and when nurtured in the right environment, these abilities can shape their future and empower them to become independent, confident contributors to society.
