Thank you for ensuring that Shezan, and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.
Twelve year old Shezan lives in a slum comminity in Mumbai and is a student of grade 7 in a local school. Shezan is a keen sportsman and wants to become a police officer when he grows up. Depsite being in secondary school, Shezan struggles with reading words, which makes it very difficult for him to keep up with his class. He is currently enrolled in a remedial Summer Camp organised as a part of Pratham’s Read India program, and in a few weeks, he is expected to graduate to reading entire stories
Shezan is a born leader, and has appointed himself the guardian of the other kids in his class. With your support, he is sure to do well in life.
Your donations will ensure that Shezan 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‘.
