Dear Supporter,
You already might know that Aaina was recently promoted to a Super Star position at Global Giving Platform . A monitoring team from Global Giving visited Aaina and was very pleased to witness the project progress and the changes in the field that has been created using funds from Global Giving . This would not have been possible without your continuous support e have so far received $ 11010 from Global Giving.
The funds have been specifically utilized towards provision of special aids to children with disability, travel allowance, addition of books for children with disability in library, organizing inclusive activities and capacity building trainings to special teachers. The cumulative effect is significant increase in enrollment and retention of children with disability in school. We are excited to inform you that now at least 600 children with disability are enrolled and retained in schools in the districts of intervention. It is especially motivating because many of the children are from remote villages and belong to underprivileged families where going to school for a child with disability remains a dream for parents. One of the beneficiaries, a 6 year old boy Prakash Patra having physical disability comments “Recently I received a pair of slippers from the funds raised in Global Giving. The slippers were modified as per my needs. Now I wear these and can walk much easily. I go to school everyday. I also received Banishree scholarship of Rs 2000 for 1 year. Now I am happy along with my friends.”
Further funds will be utilized to target most vulnerable children enabling them to access education such as providing capacity building training to special educators so that they can handle the children in school, provide necessary therapy to children to improve their functional ability and provide apt study materials to children with special needs. You all have been a big support towards this project and our inspiration to keep moving ahead.
Thank you So Much for being a vital part of this project . We also request you as always to share the project with your freinds as together we can do it much more effectively.
