AN EDUCATED GIRL WILL; “Stay healthy, save money, Build a business, empower her community and Lift her country”
This project could provide great platform to the girls from interior villages. It is helping large number of girls every year to complete their higher education through bicycle. The girls who received bicycle last year shares that “We want to study more & more till we achieve our future aim, since we got bicycle we have no reason to bunk school. We go to school every day & it helps us to save time for extra study.” We could serve 300 girls to pursue higher education through this project. This year we have a target of 500 to promote higher education of girls being in interior village by providing them bicycle.
Recently we provided 20 bicycles to the girls of selod village. It is a hope to all girls achieves their aim by pursuing higher education. The bicycle to the girls of interior villages shows 95% percent attendance in schools. It also gives parents a sense security that girls go in a group and come together.
One of the bicycle beneficiaries. Her parents are daily wages laborer. Though her parents are very supportive to her education they are unable to afford cost of her education as they have to look after family expense. She is very happy since she received bicycle that she will be able to go to school every day apart she will reach on time at school. When she had no other access of transportation, there are many days where she used to absent in school. The bicycle given to her could help her to attend school so regularly with full attendance. The school teachers also shares that they can see the enthusiasm of these girls to come to school now.
