In this report Gram Vikas Trust (GVT) wants to share project update and how our girls are doing in their studies. This year GVT is supporting 38 girls for their studies, who are coming from rural poor background and from tribal community. Most of the girls’ parents are against further education of their girl child, and the second major reason is lack of interest and/or awareness about importance of education.
Among these 38 girls, 14 are doing their graduates in Science, Arts and Commerce. 12 girls will come in 12th standard in different streams (Arts, Commerce and Science). 6 girls are doing GNM Nursing in different years, 3 girls are doing Basic Compute and English speaking course (One Year), and 3 other girls will come in 11th standard this academic year.
The cost of supporting these 38 girls is approximately 4,00,000 INR for their educational aid only and around other 1 lakh for other cost such as travelling, other school/college materials. As GVT is supporting such tribal poor girls for their education, we have seen some changes in the society, especially in the tribal community. Parents are thinking about their children’s education. And also some parents have started supporting their girl children in sending their children to school regularly and take care of their children’s education.
The journey is not yet completed, GVT has seen many difficult situation and other barriers in making the girl children educated. But with the hope of educated society GVT is trying its best for the end result. As the journey is not completed, many more girls still not able to continue their studies GVT is planning to support more girls.
Your generous support will encourage us to support and educate more girl children. Help GVT with little amount of money to support the girls.
