The Power of Purpose: Priti Yadav’s Journey from Aspiration to Impact

Priti’s interest in social causes deepened during her college years. After volunteering for several organizations, she found her home at Bhumi in 2019, initially joining as an intern. Her role soon evolved, and she now works full-time as an Associate in Bhumi’s MarComms team, bringing her skills in marketing and content to life in projects close to her heart.

Priti Yadav’s trajectory highlights what determination, passion, and a desire to create change can achieve. Born in Delhi and hailing from a humble family with roots in Uttar Pradesh, Priti’s path wasn’t always easy, but she remained steadfast in her dreams. While she once aspired to join the defence forces, her heart eventually led her to the world of education and social work.?

The first woman in her family to pursue higher education, Priti broke barriers with her drive for knowledge. Beyond academics, her love for writing blossomed into a successful career as a certified translator and author. She has already published two books, co-authored several others internationally, and has more projects in the pipeline. Her writing journey began in school with contributions to magazines and grew into freelancing for radio, educational institutions, and media.

Since her college days, she has been an enthusiastic force of positive change, volunteering across a spectrum of causes - teaching, performing arts, supporting child care, and assisting old-age centers and differently-abled children. A proud member of a socio-emotional support group, Priti has offered guidance to people of all ages navigating life's challenges. Her background in theatre, art, and literature has amplified her ability to connect deeply with the community, creating a ripple effect of empowerment and hope.

One of Priti’s proudest contributions at Bhumi is her involvement in the Bhumi Fellowship, a program that offers scholarships and opportunities for underprivileged children by helping the program grow its roots and expand nationally through enriching content and email campaigns. Despite her initial unfamiliarity with lead generation, Priti embraced the challenge, learning and growing with the support of her mentors.?

Outside of her professional life, Priti’s personality shines just as brightly. A passionate traveler, she has visited destinations like Kerala, Goa, Jaipur, and Chennai, with dreams of exploring Bali, Kashmir, and all corners of India. Music is her therapy in disguise and enjoys listening to new genres! Cooking is another one of her creative outlets, where she enjoys experimenting with unusual food combinations, like her memorable midnight snack of spiced onions and tomatoes on papad.

A voracious reader, Priti counts Wuthering Heights, Catcher in the Rye,? and 40 Rules of Love as three of her favorite books, often recommending them to others. But Priti’s vision of education goes far beyond just reading and writing. She is a strong advocate for emotional, social, and mental education, believing it is the key to shaping a better society.

Beyond her dedicated volunteering, Priti embraces life with uncontainable curiosity and passion. Her free time is a mosaic of enriching activities - storytelling, poetry nights, exploring Old Delhi's hidden gems, and indulging in new cuisines. Whether she's practicing yoga, painting, or playing badminton with friends, she finds joy in every moment. She’s an adventurer at heart, with a love for ice skating and motorboat rides, making her days both exciting and fulfilling. And her love for pets, especially street dogs, shows her nurturing spirit extends far beyond her professional endeavors.

At Bhumi, Priti draws inspiration from the positive impact her work brings to others. She’s especially grateful for her managers and enjoys spending time with her team, whose guidance and support have been a constant source of motivation. Looking ahead, she aspires to lead her own campaigns and make even greater contributions to the causes she cares about.

For Priti, Bhumi is not just an organization - it’s a harmonious melody, where every note in her work contributes to a symphony of impact. Her short but impactful stint supporting Bhumi-Nakshatra Delhi, volunteering for the Yamuna clean-up drive, and being an active part of various initiatives reflects her unwavering commitment.

As she looks ahead, her belief in change as the only constant, coupled with her drive to make a difference, continues to guide her toward more exhilarating and purpose-driven work. Her journey is a beautiful example of how dedication, lifelong learning, and an unwavering belief in making a difference can transform lives. Her work continues to inspire those around her and ripple out into the lives of countless others.
