READS is a formally registered, non-profit, non-governmental organization founded by dedicated social workers. Our target group is the most underprivileged children including slum children, street children and especially children who were caught in child labor. Currently we are running 10 primary schools for approximately 500 children in slum part of 2 areas (Raja bazaar, Garden Reach). The children who are brought back from hazardous streets and labor places are provided with primary education and vocational training at our schools. The aim of our education project is to save the children from perilous conditions and help improve their living condition by giving them a tool to earn a living in the future. The children are also provided with a meal per day and 100 INR per month to be kept away from child labor. Health care, awareness programs, family counseling services are additionally provided to enhance the quality of life of the children.
Background of Hand-in-Hand Program
Everyone is born equal, but circumstance made everyone discriminated to a certain extent. Our children are innocent for their current situation which stuck them both in poor educational condition and living standard. While some children enjoy the happiness of study in the school with beautiful and relaxed atmosphere , some other kids is struggling for the rights to study in dark dim rooms without lights, sitting on the uneven ground ,sharing the limited pencils. As a part of education, we think the schools also should take up the responsibility to give the students a chance to get to know the situation of the kids, of the same age ,but from poor family .For one hand , it can help the students build up the sense of responsibility for the society , for the other hand, it can also give the poor kids more support ,not only economically ,but also psychologically , in order for them to feel the concern from others , benefiting their development. The main social problem we met in our society in the course of modernization is the big gap and inequality between people who have same ideal presupposition but a complete different economic initiative condition. The instability and threat to society will be found within less than one decade if the underprivileged people became aware about the “proto-sin” which left a deep scar on their life from this Leviathan-Society. To keep the good nature that has been born with a kid, we must manage a mutual understanding circumstance and necessarily some proper condition that may provide our children a healthy and prospective future.
