LightUp Lives Early Ed for 75Marginalized Children

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO YOU ALL, from team Freedom For You

SEASONS GREETINGS

Our tiny-tots play school, Bal Niketan Vidyalaya, a Child Learning Center imparting early education in the slums of Rabale, to 72 tiny-tots, 2-5 years, mainly from the families of rag-pickers/daily labourers has closed for annual vacation this academic year in mid-April, and shall open in mid-June 2018.

All Moms, and of course dads too, are very happy with the all-round progress of their children in our play school. As many as 30 children shall be successfully moving out to Class-I in a neighbouring school, since they shall be attaining age 6.

Early education, as you all know, not only imparts basic education and mental abilities, but also helps the child in becoming humane, compassionate, caring and a team player with other children.

We have created all basic education related infrastructure required for these children, as planned in the beginning of the year, eventhough we had long delay in inflow of donations till greater part of this academic year. We could complete the infra needs thru gracious donation from you all as well as from a local corporate recently.

In the new academic year starting from mid June 2018, we shall be having a fully functional play school with all amenities, class rooms that can accommodate over 125 children.....that BRINGS more JOY to the caring Moms of these Tiny-Tots, and to ALL of  Us, including YOU too.

Now,  we require funding for the new academic year operational expenses pertaining to providing Uniforms, shoes/socks, books, bags, salary to the staff and last but not the least, the mid-day meal. This meal is the main attraction to these under-privileged Moms, hoping to feed their children with one good square meal, in sending the tiny-tots to our play school.

Your generous donation would go a long way in providing quality early education to these tiny-tots. For Your generous donation, click  here.

This quarter too, like in the recent past, we had a few ‘inclusive celebrations’ of birthdays of caring middle class families in our play school; These really portend a robust and healthy change in positive behavior among the middle class population to include our tiny-tots in their birthday & seasonal festive celebrations. We had our local Rotary Club of Satellite City celebrating World Women's Day at our premises by organizing Women Health & Personal Hygiene Camp, for all the MOMs of  our Tiny-tots, and neighboring women-folks too. A couple of young Doctors, who are paediatric surgeons 30 kms away, donated whole lot of children books to create our first library at our play school

This year we are also planning to get our TOYs Library for these tiny-tots, and are seeking donation of reusable toys, new toys etc; YOU too can partake in these activities and CHAMPION our CAUSE with your kith and kin
