We all know that lack of proper education has been the root cause of many social problems. Enough quotes and theories have been floating around to support this arguement.
Here is an opportunity to put it in practice! There is an estimated 10% population of Bangalore residing in slums, making it around 1 million by the end of 2010. Some of you may believe that these slums are treated as vote bank by politicians and hence are better-off in finance matters since the last decade. But, this "vote for money" has only increased unemployment, further stressing that the young kids indeed need better education to deal with this problem too.
Anyways, coming back to the issue we are discussing, Jaigopal Garodia Rashtrotthana Vidya Kendra In Ramurthy Nagar, Bangalore has come up with a good school for the who can not afford higher fees for quality education. You must see their school building to believe it. The school offers good education by dedicated teachers for a mere annual fees of Rs. 2,000.
Alas, there are quite some parents who can not even afford this much!
To solve this problem further, we have an initiative for you to support the education of these kids. The problem with sponsorship so far was, as a donor I never knew where and how my money was used. Once I donate, I would hardly get updates on the kids' progress.
We are now offering you the sponsored kids' information on-line. Yes, you will be given a log-in and password to track your sponsored kids' progress. In addition, you will have two opportunities an year to spend time with the kids. Of course, your contact details are not disclosed to the kid and to the parents avoid other problems.
We have an opportunity to support education of four kids for this year. Please let us know if you are interested in this initiative.
