Full day Campaign at Slums in Village Kanhai, Sec-45, Gurgaon. (Date: 05th Sep' 2016)
A Full day campaign was organised at the slums in village Kanhai. There are around 700 slums in that area. Each of the slum was visited and people were told to send their kids to the campaign venue. In Total, 350 Kids were given biscuits. Those kids and their parents were told about the evils of illiteracy and benefits of education. Out of 200 there were 24 kids who were not going to school even after 6 yrs of age. Unfortunately all of these kids were female between the ages 6 to 14. Their parents were called and counselled regarding the benefits of education. They told reasons for not sending their kids to school such as their child was helping at home by taking care of younger ones when their parents were out on labour work. Few of them said that they did not have enough money to support the education of their child. After convincing them time and again, 15 of them finally showed interest, their names and contact details were noted for further proceedings.
Education Awareness Campaign at Red Lights in Gurgaon (Date 06th Sep' 2016)
Details:
This was the second round at the red light
after a month. For a pleasant change, most of the children were taken to their home
districts to continue their education as per our last counseling to the head of
this group Shyonarayan. Most of the beggars here work as Balloon vendors, Toy
and other items’ sellers but eventually all of them are into begging. They all
are closely related to each other by blood. They claim to be temporarily
residing in Wazirabad village Jhuggis behind
Petrol Pump. This group of about 20 people was accompanied by their
children who were roughly between 6 months to 14 years. They stated that all of
their kids are studying in their home district i.e. Sawai Madhopur. Most of
these carried Aadhaar Cards and Election cards.
Our
Contribution:
A few packets of biscuits and water bottles
were distributed to them and they were told about the importance of education for
their children. They were also asked whether they were interested in getting
themselves educated, they simply denied as they were shy for their age. When
they were told that all of the students in such class would be of their age
only, then they showed some interest towards their education. They were also
told about the evils of staying uneducated.

(i) 50 are going to schools and (ii) 10 are under the age of 5(iii) Around 20-25 children are not enrolled in any school, these children were identified and details were forwarded for admissions.When their parents were asked about not sending these kids to school, they told that due to their nature of work, they keep relocating every 4-6 months and hence it was not easy for them to get their children admitted to new school every 4 months.
