AROH Foundation embarked on the journey to bring hope to the lives of 100 poor and deprived slum kids living in Sangam Vihar, and as you are aware, with generous support from funding community, we were able to enrol 500 children at 10 RISE Centres.
As we are completing about one year of operations, a remarkable change is seen the children who have been attending sessions regularly and are showing excellent improvement in school attendance.
The community teachers are imparting project based learning to the children who have varied learning abilities. The curriculum is designed in a way which supports the school curriculum, yet ensures that children imbibe the fundamentals through the creatively designed modules.
Mrs Revati Mittal, one of the teacher at the MCD Primary School is surprised to see the improvement in children who have been enrolled at RISE Cetres.
The parents are indeed a happier lot and feel important with their regular engagement at the centres. The parents are aware of, not only of their child’s progress, but also of the problems and challenges faced by the child because of his family circumstances. Understanding the importance of education, many parents have now started focussing on child’s need to attend school ad study. They are no more taken for labour work!
With your support, 500 children are being led to a brighter future. They are being saved from misery and drudgery and given an opportunity to enjoy a normal childhood, which is their right. We have been able to secure the Right to Education of more than 500 children living in extreme conditions of depravity. Children feel that studies have never been so much fun and the time spent at the centres is most cherished enjoyable moments for them.
We are indeed thankful to your support which has brought a ray of hope in the lives of poor and underprivileged children, who can now dream of a future. The misery writ on their faces is being wiped away to get smiles on their faces. Their little lives are filled with fun and learning, a sense of security and safety… which your help has brought.
We look forward to further support from you to pave their path firmly on the road to success and glory.
