Challenge

This project solves the problem of poverty and ignorance for one poor and orphan boy. Shiva Shankar has not had proper family support since his mother committed suicide. His father disowned the child. Without your care, Shiva Shankar would have stopped studies by now and ended up as an unemployed or an unskilled laborer. Higher education will ensure that Shankar becomes a qualified Engineer.

Solution

By sponsoring Undergraduate education (ECE) along with living and travel expenses, computer, library access, shoes and other required material to study well, the project makes it possible for Shiva Shankar to complete Bachelors in Engineering and look forward to a good career and/or higher studies. His journey can inspire more underprivileged children to think big and lead a successful life.

Long-Term Impact

Each day, we keep getting requests for admission of children who lost their parents in tragic situations. This project provides long-term support 200 children allowing them to break out of illiteracy and poverty. It project brings improvement of children's health, awareness of their rights and makes them more employable in the long run.
