Mirakle Couriers

Mirakle Couriers

We’ve recently forged a relationship with a Mumbai radio station (Radio One on 94.3) to promote awareness of social enterprise and social entrepreneurs.  On Thursday nights, the radio jockey Miss Malini will be doing short interviews with local social entrepreneurs.  Malini is using entrepreneurs that Beyond Profit has covered or that our parent company Intellecap found through our social enterprise sector-building event, Sankalp. Unltd India, an organization that supports social entrepreneurs in India, is also supporting this initiative.

Malini did the first short segment last Thursday.  The interview was with Dhruv Lakra, founder of Mirakle Couriers, a courier company that employs disadvantaged people from the deaf community.  Dhruv is a recent graduate of Oxford’s Said Business School, a 2008 Skoll Scholar, and a 2009 Echoing Green fellow.  We included Dhruv in the first issue of Beyond Profit.

LISTEN to Dhruv Lakra on Radio One.

Radio One plans to do a short segments on social entrepreneurs for the next few weeks!  Tune in tonight at 10 PM to hear from Inir Pinheiro founder of the social enterprise Grassroutes.
