Impact
Every monthly donation helps in the education of more girls like Puja
Puja Kumari lives in a remote village near Chouparan, Jharkhand. She had to discontinue her education after class V due to abject poverty. Every morning she sat in her courtyard and watch her friends go to school. Like many girls in the village, her future was soon to be sealed with an early marriage.
She was then identified by Nav Bharat Jagriti Kendra (NBJK) field workers. Puja's parents were counseled and with the support of a generous donor, she was enrolled to Chandrakala Daga Devei High school. She is now in Grade 6 and enjoys school. She now hopes to not only completing her matriculation but also pursue higher studies.
She has dreams of finishing her education and supporting her family to come out of their impoverished lives.

Program Description
Nav Bharat Jagriti Kendra (NBJK) is committed to encouraging the education of girls by providing the required support. NBJK field workers identify girls studying in village Government schools who drop out due to their family's economic conditions. Studies show 80% of the girls drop out after primary education due to high education costs.
They are also forced to marry at an early age. The field staff works hard to convince their parents to reconsider marriage and to educate their daughters. A written agreement is taken stating that they will not marry their daughters off before the age of 18 helping the girls finish their education without the fear of an early marriage.
The program supports close to 200 girls every year. When you support this program, a girl like Puja will be able to go to school, finish her education and help her family break the cycle of poverty.
