Your Support Can Empower These Tribal Migrant Children with Education

In Bongomunda Block of Bolangir, Odisha 40% tribal are staying in remote inaccessible areas with least access of basic facilities like education, health services, pure drinking water & sanitation. Every year the district has gone through severe drought for its geographical location and the people of the area becomes vulnerable. Acute poverty forces the families to stop their child’s education. And gradually a child become a child labour to earn for his family.
To stop this child’s vulnerability, AJSA India started its Bridge School Programme in the year 2016 by enrolling 816 migrant, tribal, child labour children and provide them quality education with the support of learning tools like School Bag, book, copy, pencil, pen, eraser. Now the peoples of the community happily sending their child to our Bridge School because they don’t get any extra financial burden for their child’s education.
Presently AJSA is operating 27 bridge schools in 40 villages with 1520 children. In the Bridge School programme, we are providing joyful learning so that children can interact with each other in a better way. We have added values to our programme by taking care of their health, practicing WASH and giving them the social skill for making them the Agents of social change in their communities.
