PROJECT BRIEF
Project Name:
Education for 100 Girls in an Urban Slum in India.
Summary
The project provides education for 100 Girls from poverty stricken families in slum area of West Bengal, India. It provides free books, school uniform and life skills and productive skills training.
Project Needs and Beneficiaries
The people live in this slum area work as daily wage laborers. Due to poverty they do not send their children to school. In some families, the girls are taken out of school to help parents in caring for the younger siblings, fetching water and cooking. During the season the girl child is taken to work in the fields to support their parents. Child Rights are not protected and exposed to violations. Girls are dropped out from school because parents arrange child marriages.
Activities
We establish pre-school education centre in the target slum area in Kolkata District of West Bengal, India. The project provides school books, school uniforms and provides life skills for their knowledge and productive skills for learning activities.
