Dear Aarohi, Manali, Rashmi, Amogh, Anya, Karen, Mona, Aruna, and Sanika,

Thank you for ensuring that Abdul, and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.
Nine year old Abdul lives in a slum comminity in Mumbai and is a student of grade 4 in a local school. Abdul struggles with reading and writing, and is currently enrolled in a Summer Camp organized by Pratham in his community. His teacher is confident that in a couple of weeks, Abdul will be reading simple books. Abdul is not an outgoing boy, and keeps to himself most of the time. The teacher, however, is working on Abdul’s self-confidence. Abdul dreams of becoming a police officer.
Your donations will ensure that Abdul and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program where they are provided need-based instruction in reading, writing and basic arithmetic to bring them to the literacy levels expected of children their age.
Thank you, for doing your bit to ensure that ‘every child in India is in school and doing well‘.
