It is not a pretty sight to see just a handful of children decked up in school uniforms when the majority of them continue in their shabby clothes playing in the puddles and loitering around. Have you ever caught that dreamy stare of a child on the street towards a well dressed child in uniform holding the hand of the mother ? If you did, you can imagine the thoughts....
There's more to school than just a building, it's a fond experience wherein they create memories that last for a lifetime. The desire to go to school sprouts in all children but only the privileged few get to experience it. Our shelters and community centers work to create an atmosphere similar to school for the less privileged children, where they can learn, play and create memories.
This year we could help more than 2000 children in some form towards their education. We enrolled children in our pre primary classes, gave tuitions for secondary students, prepared NIOS students for their exam and helped hundreds of children to get admissions in schools. We always make sure that each child has their own set of stationaries and a bag to go with that. It's the little things that matters most for them and each of you has a major part in giving these children, the gift of literacy.
