This project will change the life of Anitha who lost her father when she was very young. Your support will help her complete Junior College (STD XII) and be able to pursue higher education in future. She scored 78% in STD XI examinations held in March.
The girl child Anitha belongs to a single mother. Her father passed away and her mother is working on daily wages in hazardous conditions - Scavenging, Tobacco making, construction sites. Without your support, Anitha will end up as laborer or married off to some scrupulous guy in the slum area Anitha belongs to. With this unique micro project the girl child is protected and her future is secured.
This project solves the problem by providing Anitha comprehensive care and quality education, shoes, school bags, uniforms, required material to study well and regular attendance in the College instead of going to work as a laborer. Girl children are vulnerable to early marriages or trafficking. This project helps Anitha to pursue her dreams and grow up into an empowered citizen.
The project will provide education to 200 first generation school going girls and help them attain high school education at the least. Beneficiaries who complete school to secondary level are supported with higher education, training, apprenticeships and/or employment. About 150 families (750 people) will be direct and indirect beneficiaries of this initiative.
