Know more about us
Who we are
We are two Teach for India fellows teaching at Shree Geeta Vidyalaya school in Govandi, Mumbai, which is a low-income private school. We believe that our children's future will not be determined by where they come from. We want all our children to have access to a library with quality books. . Join us in the journey to give them an excellent education that they deserve!
Our work and its impact
We are Apoorva Sekhar and Aakanksha Agrawal, second year fellows at Teach for India. We teach 240 4th graders in Mumbai's lowest HDI area, Govandi in a school named Shree Geeta Vidyalaya. We believe that all children should have equal access to quality education.
How we will utilise these books
We teach in a way that our children are aware of their own agency so that they realise the potential of change that each one of them have. In our classrooms, we empower them to understand the world beyond Govandi so that they also join hands in bringing about positive social change. We believe that these books will help them become more self-aware and in turn, realise their own potential. We aim to utilise these funds to set up libraries in every classroom. Each child will have access to books in their own classroom. Through this, we will also help in setting up student led book clubs where our children will actively participate to debate upon and exchange ideas that they have gathered through these books.
