We are a group of students from the Singapore Management University (SMU) passionate about providing children around the world with access to education. Many a time, children in the lower strata of developing countries are denied education due to financial difficulties, inaccessibility to schools and parental ignorance to the benefits of education.
Starting with a village near Kolkata (India), we hope to deal with these issues. Project Kolkata aims to raise funds to construct a free school within the village, as well as conduct a mixture of English, Science and Arts courses to benefit the children.
After the project, READS India (NGO) will continue to ensure that the village children have free, sustained access to education through the provision of teaching services and maintenance of facilities at the newly-built school.
Join us in our humble cause!
How can you help?
Join our "Support a child" project! For S$100 (INR 3000), you can help one child realize his or her dream for education for 4 years. We are looking for 100 kind sponsors to support the initial intake of 100 children.
Your donation will go towards the construction of a basic 4-classroom school that will be run by READs (NGO). This free primary school will have an initial intake of 100 underprivileged children ages 4-9 in January 2009.
Help us make their dreams a reality, and do spread the word around=). We welcome any forms of donations! Please refer to the photos for more information about the proposed school.
