Thank you for ensuring that Shabaiz and 35 other children like him get the benefit of Pratham’s Read India program for a year.
Seven year old Shabaiz is a slow learner. He lives in a slum community in Mumbai and has a younger sister who is normal. His father is a driver and his mother is a housewife. In the community that he comes from, a child like Shabaiz would never have had the benefit of an education. However, Pratham volunteers convinced his parents to enroll him in the “balwadi” class conducted in his community, and he has been attending classes for a year. His progress is slow, but in his own way, he takes part in all the activities, and his teacher hopes that he will graduate to primary school soon.
Your donations will ensure that Shabaiz and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India’s balwadi program that prepares children for primary school.
Thank you, for doing your bit to ensure that ‘every child in India is in school and learning well’.
