Afsaana loves writing ghost stories

Afsaana is a shy but giggly eleven-year-old. She loves reading books, inside and outside of her fifth grade class. Her favorites are ghost stories, and she’ll sometimes act like a ghost to try to scare her younger siblings. She has two sisters and one brother, who likes to act like a ghost with her. She finds math difficult, but Pratham’s support class is helping her a lot. She doesn’t know what she wants to be when she’s older — maybe a writer of spooky stories!

Your donations will ensure that Afsaana 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‘.
