On 18 September 2025, The Better India Showcase, presented by Optum and supported by the M3M Foundation, lit up Delhi by honouring nine extraordinary changemakers from diverse fields. Held at The Ashok Hotel, the event was more than an awards night it was a celebration of courage, hope, and persistence.

From farmers and educators to healthcare innovators, water defenders and environmental stewards, the winners are transforming lives, often with limited resources. The Showcase emphasised real action over accolades, with moving stories of resilience, compassion, and innovation sparking inspiration for everyone present. 

While applause filled the hall, the organisers’ message was clear: this is ignition not a finale. These changemakers are being seen, their work amplified, and their impact remembered beyond the glitz.
