When a quadriplegic is given the opportunity to speak to the top management of a reputed software firm in Bangalore it is a victory for Throat Fort, one of Soulfree’s key initiatives, that is working towards providing voice-based jobs for those who are paralysed below the neck.

Soulfree founder, Preethi Srinivasan was invited to speak at VMware, a renowned software company that has offices around the world. As part of The Whole 9 Yards, their ongoing development program, Preethi was asked to provide an inspirational talk on the theme, “PROGRESSING DESPITE CONSTRAINTS”. The event took place on Thursday, 08. 10. 2015, between 11 AM and 1 PM at the VMware Bangalore office.

“Mr Thomas George, VP Global Shared Services, not only stated his happiness after the talk, but also promised long-term support and encouragement for Soulfree and Throat Fort. I wish to convey my deepest gratitude to him for giving me this wonderful opportunity to share my story”

“Poornima and Parag Pandey Ji, the owners of a HR firm called ‘Raining Grey’, who constructed co-ordinated the program were so warm and caring, it was a truly amazing experience for me. I wish to thank them from the bottom of my heart.”
