Know more about us

Who we are

We are a class of 42 'eight year old' leaders - to - be that study in a low income private school in Jamalpur, Ahmedabad. We require books for our classroom library for we dream to be avid readers and wish to hone our comprehension skills. Also, we would like to infer from and/or connect to the morals from these books to solve real life problems.


Our work and its impact

I am Viraj Surve, an Electronics and Telecommunication Engineer by profession. My passion for teaching and my love for kids has brought me to the platform called 'Teach For India', where I get the opportunity to guide and mentor forty two high potential kids and at the same time learn from them.


How we will utilise these books

Being a teacher to forty two amazing kids, I try and incorporate 'academic excellence', 'values and mindsets' and 'exposure and access' in their everyday learning. Each day is focused on making my kids better learners than the day before. I believe that being an effective speaker, listener, to be able to comprehend and solve societal problems is the need of the day. This is what I prepare my kids for everyday. I aim to build a library by the end of this academic year. The funds will be utilized to get books for this library. I aim to make my class room 'literacy - rich' where each of my kids can find a book that suits their learning level. The aim is to make avid readers and problem solvers of our age.
