“We must accept finite disappointment but never lose infinite hope.” by [[Martin Luther King Jr.|Martin Luther King]]

Speranza was launched as a [[pedestal]] to create a [[generation]] of strong willed, self-reliant and aware youth, capable of discovering new paths and leaving behind their own trail, a trail leading to newer, brighter horizons. There exists a burning flame in each individual to something worthwhile, which can affect their own life and [[society]]. This flame is fuelled by hope and faith, and providing this requisite fuel is what Speranza is about.

Speranza, in the course of a three-day period, achieves its mission of [[Holism|holistic]] development of individuals through various [[Workshop|workshops]], talkshows, interactive sessions, a mélange of cultural activities. There is always more than one facet of a diamond, and as individuals we all have a distribution of characteristics. Overall development implies working on each facet of our being and [[personality]], polishing of each facet can only ensure a flawless diamond.

Speranza, in its 5th year, envisages to acknowledge the proliferating passion in the youth about [[Welfare|social welfare]]. This year, we are returning with a strong motive and even higher targets. Speranza 2018 has come up with a motto "Rule The Roulette". Speranza 2018 will be a unique opportunity to let everyone explore their inner self; discover their passion and return to life with greater zeal.
