Pallavi enjoys studying!
posted July 10, 2011
Five year old, Pallavi Manor hails from Gorai, one of the innumerable poverty-stricken slum pockets in Mumbai. Her father, Manor, works as a carpenter and her mother, Rekha, is a housewife. She has three sisters as well. Though her parents have not studied much, Pallavi can dream of a stable future with a good education.
Pallavi studies at the Gorai study center run by Sahaara. She is a keen student who has always been eager to attend the study center. She is a very quiet child but has a hunger for learning more and more from the teachers. She recites numbers from 1-10 and alphabets from A-Z with bubbling enthusiasm. She loves to draw and also enjoys playing with her toys. She thoroughly enjoys physical activities like running and hopping as well!
Sahaara’s balwadi has a systematic curriculum wherein children are equipped in the following subjects over the period of a year: English and Hindi: alphabets and poems, writing skills, general knowledge (colours, animals, flowers, personal hygiene etc), colouring, games and activities such as counting and recognition.
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 Pallavi get a start which will help her break out of the poverty cycle.
Your generous donation, Ketan, will enable Sahaara to provide a year of pre-primary education to Pallavi.
Thank you so much, Ketan, for gifting a dream to a vulnerable slum child like Pallavi, thereby paving the way to a self-reliant and brighter future!
