Learning Centre for waste pickers children, India

Hello Friends and Supporters, Namaste!  

Warm greetings from BASS, India!

We’re thrilled to share the journey of our  Learning centre for waste picker family’s children, Guntur  from January 2024 to April 2024. Established to give 50 waste picker children a chance at education, our centre is a beacon of hope in the slum. This centre is successfully operating for the past two years.  

This centre operates for two sessions daily: 7-8:30 AM and 5-7:30 PM. With two passionate teachers, our kids not only learn academics but also life skills. They’re eager learners, attending with smiles each day.

Celebrating success, 40 children are thriving in local schools, their school presence and participation soaring. No longer waste picking, they stand taller, their confidence blooming. Parents, too, are champions of this educational journey.

As the academic year wrapped up in April 2024, our kids aced their exams and stepped up to the next grade. We’re overjoyed! Summer brings a 40-day break, yet our centre remains a hub of activity, nourishing minds and bodies with meals twice a day.

Funding, however, is tight. With just $108 this quarter, every penny has been a lifeline. As we approach the new school year in June 2024, we turn to you. Your generosity can light the path for these 50 stars.

Please consider a donation to sustain their growth. Your support is more than a gift; it’s a future crafted with care.

Thank you for your unwavering kindness.

Gratefully,

The BASS Learning Centre Team
