About Garvita

Garvita Gulhati is enabling students in high schools across her community see that age is not a limit to solving problems you care about.

Garvita Gulhati enables students in high schools across her community see that age is not a limit to solving problems you care about. At 15 years old, she and her friend, Pooja S. Tanawade, did just that. They started “Why Waste?,” an organization educating citizens about creative ways to reduce water waste — starting with restaurants where four million gallons of water are wasted per year in India. Inspired by stories of change, Garvita is also building the Lead Young at Schools movement, which has up until today reached 800+ schools and about 2.5 million students across the country. She is also a very enthusiastic entrepreneur, dancer, and artist.
