Care and Educate slum kids in Guntur, India

Dear Friends, donors, Namaste  

Many greetings and good wishes to you from BASS, India

Thank you very much for your kind continuous support to the children with us through this project for the last 10 years.

The Academic year 2021-22 is successfully completed. All the children got the best progress in their annual exams and finally were promoted to the next classes.

 
Total 150 children benefited through this project in two slum locations. The summer holidays are given to all schools as per government instructions from the first week of May to first week July 2022. But at swarna bharathi nagar slum school we are operating a special learning centre during summer holidays with expert teachers with Maths, science, English, health care and life skills subjects. Children are very happy to attend half day during summer holidays.

 
Unfortunately the government India has stopped National Child labor project for the academic year 2022-23 throughout India  So the staff members could not get the salaries and students could not get any government benefits. Therefore we have mainstreamed all the children to other local schools at Swarna Bharathi Nagar centre and continued to keep with us children in our school at Dasaripalem centre. Total 9 staff members from this project have not received salaries for the last 16 months. But our organization is providing partial salaries support to the staff for their family needs with our limited resources.

       
Now we have been continuing our Care and education program for the slum children in the two locations for this new academic year 2022-23 from the first week of July. At Dasaripalem School we are continuing to operate as a regular school and more than 120 children are attending currently. 5 teachers and 3 helpers and cooks are working here.  And Swarna Bharathi nagar slum centre changed to a special learning centre, operating at evening times. After school program. More than 60 children attend this centre during the evening and two teachers are working here to educate children

.
Now we humbly request you to kindly help 180 children to get educational material, learning material, school bags and school uniforms for this new academic year. And also kindly consider giving pending salaries to the staff members who could not get salaries for the last 16 months from the government. And also kindly support a mid day meal program for Dasari Palem School centre.
   
Thank you so much for you support

with gratitude
