Dear Sir/Ma’am,
Warm regards from Gram Vikas Trust, Bharuch!

In this report, Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) wants share the update of “Give a girl a bicycle-help her to go to school” project. It’s been so long GVT is helping the needy girls by providing bicycles to support the higher education, as many girls are not join the high school after they complete their primary education from their village. Parents and community also not support or take care of girl children for their further studies. The culture has set in some of the villages that education is not fruitful and especially for the girls. It is not eventually useful as the girls has to remain in home only after their marriage also.
In an urban set up, parents are taking care of the children’s’ higher education but at the same time in rural areas parents are not thinking about children’s education. Not sending regular to the school, do not even know in which standard/class his/her child is studying.
Till date GVT has supported hundreds of bicycles to the needy girls and have able to ensure that the girls can continue or start their higher education, which has stopped or not started due to long distance between school and village. But it has been observed that many girls are still there who are not getting education due to lack of support of parents and community because of the poor road condition and lack of transportation facilities. GVT has identified 17 such girls from three different villages of Jhagadia block who are in need of bicycles. From these 17 girls 13 girls are going to school but which is very irregular, and 4 girls are almost drop out from school. From June-2018 they have attended some of the days in schools but later on they have not visited their schools.
Requesting you to support for these 17 girls, let us not try to make their future darken. The single penny from your end will help them to make their future brighter.
Thanks for the continuous support!
