Dear all,
Hey There, Superheros! Greetings from Bethany Society, Meghalaya, India
First up, we would like to acknowledge your valuable and vitalizing contribution towards enabling a child to achieve their entitled right to lead a “Life with Dignity”. The Bethany Society family expresses our warmest appreciation and sincere gratitude to you for this admirable deed of supporting the education and rehabilitation of children and young people with disabilities for six months (October 2018 – March 2019).
Owing to your enabling support, we have been able to further the cause of our prodigious children and young people. Over the course of the last six months, 45 of our students have been connected to direct individual sponsors (both from India and abroad) for complete or partial support for their education and accommodation (for six months duration; October 2018- March 2019). The last six months were also historically significant for us as we celebrated the Silver Jubilee of our inclusive school, thus commemorating the 25 years of its relentless service to the communities of Meghalaya and Northeast India in the field of education. The Silver Jubilee was also dedicated to celebrating our unique abilities and diversity through an inclusive talent show where the students showcased their inherent talents.
Besides, the achievements of some of our students were inspirational in the field of science and performing arts both at the local and state levels. Moreover, 28 of our students are currently appearing for their Higher Secondary (10+2) and Secondary (10) school leaving examinations (Please find attached the detailed report summarizing the major highlights and achievements of the last six months).
All in all, these milestones coupled with your encouraging support inspires us further to continue working relentlessly towards furthering the cause of promoting an inclusive, barrier-free, rights-based society wherein everyone enjoys a fullness of being.
Hoping for a long-lasting relationship, Thanks a lot!
