Thank you for ensuring that Gauri and 29 other children like her are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.

Gauri from Delhi was disinterested in school. It was boring and quite a chore. All she enjoyed was recess time when all children played in the fields and the girls chatted with each other. But it’s not the same now. Gauri’s school now has a new class – Pratham Library Class. She loves reading the simple and colourful story books. Gauri now wants to be a teacher and tell stories to children. Thank you for supporting Pratham in its effort to get children like Gauri interested in reading.

Your donations will ensure that Gauri and 29 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 ensuring that Raju and 29 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.

Nine year old Raju from Punjab lost his father at age two. His mother has had to struggle a lot to bring up her three children including Raju who has a speech defect. His mother enrolled him to a nearby school but he soon lost interest and would spend time at the fields playing with his friends. Raju came to Pratham last year and could barely read letters. Six months with Pratham and he can now read paragraphs fluently. Raju’s mother’s financial condition is no better but she now has some hope that her son will surely make it big one day.

Thank you for coming together to ensure that Bhawani and nineteen others like her get a good education.

Seven year old Bhawani from Hyderabad feared numbers until last year. Addition and subtraction was a nightmare as she would get confused between different digits. She overcame her fear when she was introduced to Pratham’s fun way of adding and subtracting through currency notes. In just a few months, she has progressed really fast, and today, she can even multiply with ease.

Thank you for coming together to ensure that Abhishek and nineteen others like him get a good education.

Seven year old Abhishek studies in the second grade at the local village school in his village of Majra in Meerut District, Uttar Pradesh. When he was assessed, it was found that his level of learning was at the ‘nothing level’- meaning he did not have any of the reading, writing and mathematical skills that a student of his age should possess.

He is now enrolled in the Read India Program at Pratham, and both he and his class teacher are proud of the fact that he has learnt to recognize letters and count till 10.

His village does not have many doctors and Abhishek§s seen many old and sickly get worse due to lack of proper medical care. He aspires to become a doctor one day and cure all the sick people in his village.
