Excelsior Correspondent

SOLAN, July 24: Poonam Nanda, director of Sustainability and Community Engagement at Shoolini University (SU) was today honoured with the prestigious C-Positive Award by the Rising India Foundation and the Texas School of Mental Health.
The award recognises her exceptional courage as a three-time cancer survivor and her continuous efforts to spread awareness about early detection and mental strength while battling cancer.
Nanda was recognised not only for her personal strength but also for her ongoing work to inspire others.
Her dedication to spreading awareness, encouraging timely diagnosis and supporting those in need has made a lasting impact especially among women who often delay medical attention.
Nanda’s presence and story stood out as a shining example of resilience, reminding everyone of the strength of the human spirit.
The event brought together survivors, caregivers, doctors and change makers from across the country.
The C-Positive Awards are a unique initiative that aims to change the way society views cancer.
Traditionally seen as a word that evokes fear and sadness, the letter “C” has now been redefined to represent Compassion, Comfort, Care, Courage and Confidence.
The awards honour individuals who have either personally faced cancer or contributed meaningfully to creating awareness and support systems in society.
