Who we are

“There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate’s loot on Treasure Island.” — Walt Disney. So true. Most of us bought up reading Dr. Seuss and Roald Dahl in schools and home. But do you know how many kids do not get book to read? Countless. I am teaching 55 aspiring, curious students of Grade 2 in a low income private school. For this I have to get a library in my classroom. So that kids can get equal opportunity to read books, who love to read. Take a small step to empower these kids with books.


Our work and its impact

I am Alok teaching 55 kids in a low income private school. We are enthusiastic, creative minded kids who wants to widen our thinking and possibilities. We actually love reading books. I would love to provide my kids a golden opportunity for getting exposed to the magical world of books. With your help, I want to make them familiar with books which will build their understanding and conscience from this childhood. So that they can explore their potential in future.


How we will utilise these books

Teach For India started the movement in the year 2008 with a vision in mind that ‘One day all children will attain excellent education’. I work for this vision named Teach For India, which has placed me in a low income school where education was sinking because of poor deliverables. When I started teaching in class, I came to know that the real problem is not what I thought of, actually the problem is to bring these deep sunken education. To build the bridges between the one with good education and high exposure and one with no exposure and worst education. I, then, understood this can be well bridged by empowering the kids from the communities and slums with education, by leveraging excellent education that can give them an exposure and an opportunity to compete with the outer world. I am glad I am making a difference by teaching them in a class and trying to bring about a change. Each valuable penny of yours will be used for the betterment of class by purchasing books for a Library which will eventually give the underprivileged kids an opportunity to fulfill their dream of reading good story books which usually they don’t get at home. And these 55 kids of grade 2 will get a fair chance to read, also we will make this library accessible for the other kids too, to make reading contagious.
