Gifting a dream to Beba through education

Beba hails from Dharavi, arguably the largest and most populated slum pocket in Asia.  Beba’s father, Paul, works as a pastor and her mother, Jaculin Suja, is a housewife. Though her parents have not studied beyond the twelfth grade, Beba can dream of a stable future with a good education.

Beba studies at the Dharavi study center run by Sahaara. After the initial phase of separation anxiety in the first few days in the balwadi, Beba has emerged a keen and enthusiastic student who has always been eager to attend the study center. To any first time visitor, little Beba’s  love for play and prompt answers to teachers’ questions would belie her background and family’s poverty. She particularly enjoys dressing up for class and has a keen eye for personal neatness and grooming. Beba’s favourite activity is playing with toys and dolls.

Sahaara Charitable Society believes that every person has a dream, and their work centers around ensuring that marginalized persons are able to articulate and work towards achieving their dream. Sahaara’s early childhood education program gives children like Beba get a start which will help her break out of the poverty cycle.

Your generous donation, Sybille, will enable Sahaara to provide a year of pre-primary education to Beba.

Thank you so much, Sybille, for gifting a dream to a vulnerable child like Beba, thereby paving the way to a self-reliant and brighter future!
