Help Sponsor Children to Access Education in India

We’re truly grateful for your continued support of the school, a vital safe space for children with disabilities and mental challenges who often don’t find a place in regular government schools.

Under the compassionate leadership of Padmini, the head teacher, the school has been a hub of hope and growth. Over the past three months, there have been many heartwarming moments and encouraging milestones.

The children recently celebrated several special events, including cultural festivals and birthdays, which brought smiles and laughter all around. These gatherings aren’t just fun—they build confidence, foster social skills, and strengthen the community bonds that make the school feel like a second home.

One ongoing highlight is the weekly physiotherapy sessions we fund. The physiotherapist works closely with children who have mobility difficulties, using targeted exercises to improve their movement and overall health. We’ve seen remarkable progress—children are becoming stronger and more active, which uplifts their spirits and boosts their engagement in daily activities.

Educationally, Padmini and the dedicated teaching staff tailor learning to each child’s abilities, celebrating every small victory. From developing communication skills to learning basic life skills, the children make steady progress in a nurturing environment.

The school also shares regular updates on individual children’s development, showing how far they’ve come thanks to this holistic approach combining therapy, education, and love.

Looking forward, the school aims to deepen its support with more therapy sessions, improved learning resources, and expanded community activities that help the children flourish both inside and outside the classroom.

If you’ve been thinking about helping further, remember GlobalGiving’s Bonus Day on July 16–17. Donations of $100 or more during this 24-hour event receive matching funds, so your support can go even further.

Thank you for being part of this incredible journey, giving these children the chance to grow, learn, and thrive in a place they truly belong.

The Problem:

Imagine a country where many people can't read or write. That's the challenge in parts of India. About 35% of people there are illiterate, meaning they haven't learned these important skills.
Why is this happening?
Money Troubles: Many families live in very poor areas, earning very little money each day. They can't afford to send their kids to school.
School Struggles: Some kids start school but then have to stop (drop out). Sometimes, the schools aren't very good, especially in the early years.
Costly Higher Education: If someone wants to go to college or university, it's often very expensive.
Brain Drain: People who do get good educations sometimes leave India to find better jobs in other countries. This makes it harder for India's economy to grow.
The Goal (SDG4):

The goal is to make sure everyone has access to quality education. This is also known as Sustainable Development Goal 4.
The Solution:

This group is working with schools and other organizations in India to help.
Here's what they're doing:
Scholarships: Giving money to students of all ages so they can go to school.
English Lessons: Teaching English, which can open up more job opportunities.
Improving Schools: Helping schools get better by providing resources and training for teachers.
Providing Educational Resources: Supplying books, computers, and other things that help students learn.
The Plan:

They want to help kids get good educations, which will lead to better jobs in the future.
They want to keep in close contact with the schools and the people they are helping, to make sure the help they are giving is the right kind of help.
They want to give more children from poor areas the chance to go to school.
They want to lower the number of children that drop out of school.
They want to increase the number of people who can read and write.
They want to help improve India's economy.
The Progress:

They're trying to raise £3,568 to reach their goal.
So far, they've raised £1,178 from 8 donors.
They have 2 fundraisers working to help them.
They have been working on this project for 4 years.
In simple terms: They're trying to give kids in India a better chance at life by helping them get a good education.
