Fundraise for a Cause with Milaap : the Best Crowdfunding | Milaap
3rd September 2017
Dear Supporters, 

It is often said that “it takes a village to raise a child,” and this came true in the case of one of the girls in my class. Meet Pinky: she is a 12-year-old who lives with her parents, elder sister, and younger brother at home. Coming from a community called Kali Basti, her father owns a Gol Gappa stall, earning around 10,000 rupees per month. 

When we started our journey, Pinky was the girl who would sit quietly at the back of the class with her notebook closed, staring at the trees from the window. Her record showed she was an irregular child and that her performance had gone down recently. It almost seemed she was helpless as even after breaking down instructions into the most fundamental pieces, she responded listlessly. 

It wasn’t until one day when I asked her why she was sitting alone, that we could break through her shell. With tears in her eyes, Pinky explained her situation and we finally grasped her difficulty. Family disharmony, the negligence of her peers, and various other issues had taken a toll on her physical and mental well-being and hence her growth was halted in the classroom. 

All she needed was some affection and a focused approach, and we were determined to do whatever was necessary to ensure healthy development. We checked on her in each class and gave her extra time to help her in understanding and retaining the lessons taught in class. 

This push has given her the encouragement and confidence to participate freely in the classroom like the other children, and slowly she has grown to be a lively and active child. Today, she is not the same Pinky anymore. This Pinky wants to make friends, learn, grow, and fly towards her ambitions.

As we look back on our conversation that day, we realize just how fragile and sensitive children can be, and sometimes all it takes is a conversation, love, and some time to nurture even the most helpless kids to soar.

Thank you for the support. Would request you to please share this campaign further with your friend's and family.
