A Child without Education is like a Bird without wings; Tibetian Proverb

I would love to share the things that have been shared by the girls who received bicycle before 3 months through this project.  The academic years for schools have been started since 1st June, 2014. The girls are able to go schools regularly. It is Monsoon in India presently, interior villages faces lot of problem due to heavy rain especially school children to reach school. While our visit to schools, the head master of the school shared his gratitude for providing bicycle to these girls. They used to have very less attendance before but now girls are coming regularly in the schools.

Girls go together to school. They are able to reach on time and do not miss any classes. All 20 girls are studying in different standard and they have enrolled in upper standard this year. One of the girls shared her feeling with me. Her name is Leanne Christee (Beneficiary name changed). She is enrolled in 9th standard this year. I feel so proud of her because she has cope up from all the barriers in life and has started attending school again after a drop out of 3 years.  She was dropped out after 7th standard and now she is back to school. She says that I have to walk 14km a day to reach school and come back home. But now I do not have to take much trouble as I have got bicycle to go school and complete my education. I want to pursue graduation and this is an initiative to full fill my dream.   

Thank you to all our donors and supports for contributing to full fill the dream of these girls. Your continue support will help make many other girls like leanne to get education. We are aiming to support more 250 girls this year.
