Every monthly donation helps to educate more kids like Kajal
Learning Challenges with no help often result in children dropping out of school. Kajal, a grade 4 student from an underserved area in Delhi faced challenges grasping what the teachers taught her. However, her parents were illiterate and with limited income couldn't afford a tutor.
Kajal was losing interest in studies when she was enrolled in the Remedial Education Project. With a little support, she began to improve and has consistently scored 60% in academics. Now is high school, she volunteers to spread the cause of education. She surveyed a slum as a part of a project to mainstream dropout children.
Many kids like Kajal are on the verge of dropping out for the want of a little help, you can help save their future.
