Though he doesn’t have any books of his own, Husain loves reading

Hussain Baig-001
Dear Jeffery, Long, Kory, Surinder, Gaurav, Anshul, and Robert,

Thank you for ensuring that Husain and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.
Husain Baig is an avid learner. He is twelve-years-old and in seventh grade, already his third year with Pratham. Math is his favorite subject, and he loves doing multiplication. He also likes to read books, but he doesn’t have any at home, so he makes sure to read one or two every time he comes to class. He has never been to a library, but has heard about them and would like to visit one and get a lot of books. When he is not learning, Husain loves to play and watch soccer. Cristiano Ronaldo is his favorite player, and Husain tries to play just like him when he and his friends play in the garden near his school. He especially loves playing in the rain!
Your donations will ensure that Husain 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 learning well‘.
