Details of the Organisation
Project Nanhi Kali is supporting the education of over 110,000 underprivileged girl children across 10 states in India. Its work is rooted in the belief that education is the single most powerful intervention for transforming lives. For thousands of disadvantaged girls in India, education is the only weapon that will open the doors to provide them with equal opportunity, so that they can grow, learn and realize their own potential.The intervention includes academic support with before or after-school classes to strengthen learning levels. Material support is provided with schoolbags, shoes, books, uniforms, lunch boxes and other essentials that help a girl go to school with dignity.
Project Nanhi Kali also mobilizes communities of parents, teachers and village elders to make them active stakeholders in the process of changing mindsets towards educating girls. They work closely with the community, sensitizing them on the importance of girl child education and against various social evils like child marriage and gender discrimination, thus providing a much needed platform to change mindsets and negative attitudes towards the girl child.
Every bit donated helps and goes towards the Rs. 3,000 it takes to support a girl through a whole year of her primary education, or towards the Rs. 4,200 it takes to support her through a year of secondary education. By donating to Project Nanhi Kali, you can #EducateAGirlChild
