My journey in last 2 years to make changes in some lives --Education for underpriviledged children
Hows evrybody? Hopefully everyone who saw my last blog about education are doing well.Sorry i was not table to write in these 2 years.I was busy with many things all together,but now i am back and I will continuosly post the work we are doing at Aashayein foundation,oops i think you guys forgot about Aashayein.ok..2 years back after doing my evaluation of education level in India i thought i need to do something to improve education level here or atleast put my efforts with some like minded guys and we may be able do miracles.And as somebody said like if you have wish than you get path some or the other way and i too got it.I found some of the young Software guys from my college who started a NGO(Aashayein Foundation) in 2007 to improve education level in Bangalore rural and slum areas and after joining a awareness walk in 2009 with them in banglaore (with many other young IT professionals) i came to know that there are many young guys like me who want to make some difference.That day i joined Aashayein foundation and never looked back and we are doing so many amazing things here and atleast made differences to the lives of 10000+ slum and rural kids till now in India.
We have some unique programs which are uncommon like we urge IT guys and other enthusiasts to teach in govt or govt aided schools for 2 hours in rural and slum areas on their satudays.We also support kids whose parents are not able to teach them due to financial constraints in rural as well as slum areas.In 3rd program we support schools who are devoid of funds to give basic education facility to children and we supported 10+ schools schools last year.Now we have 2000+ Young guys with us to work towards this education goal in India and we have also started working in Hyderabad and Mysore region to identify kids and schools to support them with the help from individuals and corporates.I started from teaching in one of these schools for 1 year and now i am working to get funds from corporates or from individuals so that we can increase the span of our programs and cover most of the kids and schools in india and make a significant impact at the grass root levels of Indian education system.But with money we need people also who can take this cause and work towards this.In bangalore we are able to make difference in the schools where we are working because of such enthusiastic youngsters who are hell bent to do something for our country.We need people to join us and take this cause.
We organized walkathon 2011,awareness walk to get people from all spheres of life on 25th September 2011 and we were amazed to see response and support we got from so many people ,so i feel there is a urge in everyone of us to do something fro our country and society but we need a path.Aashayein is such a path where we can do many things to improve our education.I urge all youngsters to join us and make a difference.
My 2 years journey is just a start of a long journey towards a goal which is to make difference to some lives before i die.We are just a leaf of a big Indian tree now we need all youngsters to join us and help us to become a tree............
I will update you guys regularly from now so on that you can know what we guys are doing new and how its making a difference.........
