Impact

Every monthly donation helps to educate more girls like Ramila

Ramila is the oldest daughter in her family of eight. She was a bright student but almost discontinued her education as the high school was very far from her village.

There was no transport and she had to spend hours walking from and to school. Keeping her safety in mind, her mother decided to stop her education. She then approached Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) who helped her with a bicycle.

This greatly reduced her travel time and now is a happy student with dreams of enrolling in university someday.

Program Description

Studies show that 85% of girls discontinue education after 5th or 7th grade because they cannot access the nearest school. Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) is a national level organization that works with the rural youth in the villages of Gujarat. They work on creating equal opportunities to overcome economic and social challenges for women.

The main purpose of the project is to provide transport facility to girl children who have passed the 7th standard since there is no higher class within the village. This reduces the dropouts among girl children and supports them for higher education in nearby villages.

The program also tracks the children who have received the bicycles through their schools. When you donate to this program can help a girl child continue her education and secure her future.

About The NGO

Gram Vikas Trust

Hailing from a rural background, the founder of Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) was no stranger to hardships. Ramesh Kasondra, himself, has undergone several economic and social challenges.

In order to convert his experience and exposure to support and uplift his society, he established Gram Vikas Trust. GVT now operates in more than 100 villages of Bharuch district with the key areas being child rights, education, health and hygiene, sustainable livelihood, and women empowerment. GVT's belief that knowledge is the path to self-development has re-enrolled thousands of school drop-outs back to school. To promote an equitable living environment, GVT gives vocational training to hundreds of students each year along with awareness on health and hygiene.

The organization was actively involved in constructing and renovating the sanitation facilities of the Government Schools in and around their district. GVT is committed to creating a strong and independent society without inequality. It aims for a society free of discrimination and where everybody enjoys equal opportunities.
