Why Education
If we need to address healthcare, poverty, population control, unemployment and human rights, there’s no better way to start than providing education to children in need. Education not only empowers children to have a secure future but also helps them grow up as responsible national and global citizens. The Right to Education (RTE) Act which came into force in 2010 made education free and compulsory for all children in the age group of 6-14 years. But even a decade later, the learning curve has not been steady for many children in the country. The socio-economic conditions of parents and lack of proper learning in schools are hindrances which prevent many children from having education.
DONATE FOR CHILDREN FUTURE
Stationery is a simple yet powerful tool in a child’s education. Without access to notebooks, pens, pencils, erasers, and colors, students cannot fully engage in learning. These basic supplies unlock creativity, support expression, and build confidence. Help us ensure that every child at Ling Gesar School has the tools they need to succeed. Your support turns paper and pencils into possibilities.
Ling Gesar School, currently educating 80 children, is a primary school affiliated with the State Department of Education, Uttarakhand. We consider it a privilege and responsibility to preserve and operate this vital institution. Your donation helps sustain our mission of providing quality education in a nurturing environment. Every contribution empowers a child’s future through learning and hope.
Food is a basic need that supports every child's ability to learn and grow. Without proper nutrition, students find it hard to focus, engage, or enjoy their education. At Ling Gesar School, we provide daily meals to ensure children stay healthy and active. Your support helps us nourish young minds, enabling them to thrive in the classroom and beyond.
