=Challenge=
Poverty is a self-perpetuating phenomenon giving rise to illiteracy. Children from deprived homes in India are often first generation learners and do not have coaching at home and those who come from below poverty line families cannot afford after school activities in support of their education. The activities in which these children and youth engage while outside of school hours are critical to their development, highlighting the need for quality after school programs in local slum communities.

=Long-Term Impact=
We will augment education, vocation and livelihoods of 200 underprivileged children and help them rise out of poverty to secure their futures. Most of the children will, if they complete their education, become the 1st in their family to attend college and have improved academic aspirations. Further more, positive outcomes will be seen including a secure and sustainable future, better educational performance, increased school attendance and good health.
