Nazia, the future doctor

Thank you for ensuring that Nazia and 34 other children like her are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.

Twelve year old Nazia lives in a slum community in Mumbai, and studies in grade 7 at a local school. Though she comes from a fairly conservative Muslim family, Nazia’s parents are determined to give her a good education, which is why they send her to the Read India Library Program. Nazia is a studious child, who wants to become a doctor when she grows up. Before Pratham started the Library Program in her community, Nazia did not know who to go to for getting her doubts cleared, but now she has the Pratham teacher to help her. Nazia loves reading Urdu books, and has now become fluent in the languge.

Your donations will ensure that Nazia and 34 other children like her 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 learning well‘.
