EDUCATE A CHILD

The Educate a Child Programme is an attempt to provide necessary educational support for two years to different categories of children in difficult circumstances so that they can continue with their education and create an impact in the community they belong to. The majority of these children are from the slums, squatter colonies, railway platforms and red light areas. Sponsors for this programme can be an individual, a family or an institution. This sponsorship should not be considered as adoption of the child, as the child continues to live with his/her family or in an institution where he/she has been placed.

Children belonging to the high-risk group, especially street children with or without parents and children of sex workers may need to be placed in a set up away from their vulnerable environment, preferably in residential schools. Support for this group of children includes school fees, boarding fees, tuition fees, uniforms and necessary educational materials.

Children from the slums and squatter colonies living with their parents (single or both) would require support for school fees, and/or necessary educational materials, uniform.
