Karishma enjoys good food!

Three year old Karishma Chauhan is one of three children. Her father, Raju Chauhan, and her mother, Chauguna, work at a construction company. They are a family of five that includes Karishma, her sister, her brother and parents. Pranali hails from Mankhurd, one of the innumerable poverty stricken slum pockets in Mumbai. The family income is barely enough to make both ends meet.

Sahaara’s balwadi is situated near Pranali’s house and this is a boon to Pragati because majority of slum children are deprived of quality and accessible education. 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 (colors, animals, flowers, personal hygiene etc), coloring, games and activities such as counting and recognition.

Karishma is a quiet child but has a hunger to learn more and more from her teachers! She enjoys physical activities like running and hopping. She relishes having good food. She is sociable and enjoys sharing her toys and things with other children as well.

Your generous donations,Corina, Kowsilliya (X2), , Chris, and Ritesh, will enable Sahaara to provide an entire year of pre-primary education to Karishma thereby ensuring that she has the opportunity to a stable future!

Thank you,Corina, Kowsilliya, Chris, and Ritesh, for your gift to Karishma!
