Dear friends, donors, and interested people,
In India, access to education is very limited with around a third of the population being illiterate. This is awful for the average, able person let alone for children with disabilities who have even poorer access to education and whose families often aren't educated on how best to meet their extra needs. Furthermore, most of these children aren't able to take public transport by themselves due to their condition and their parents can't take time off work to go with them, resulting in a situation where even if the education is available, it isn't accessible.
Donations tackle this by contributing towards paying for private transport to take these children to school in order to access the high quality, personalised care they require. When at the school, children with physical disabilities receive a range of physiotherapies specific to their condition, and those with mental impairments receive learning support from trained professionals who tailor help to their needs and give them the patient special educational treatment they need and deserve. This leads to children passing their exams and having the chance to participate in extracurricular opportunities who otherwise would receive no education whatsoever.
Thank you for your continuing support for this amazing cause.
