In the constant fight for survival, amidst COVID crisis, investing in child education is more than a luxury for resource-poor communities. There are high chances that the children who went to schools before the pandemic, might discontinue education. Due to poverty, hunger and loss of livelihoods, there is risk of early and enforced marriages\u00a0or engaging children in workforce as child labour by their parents.\u00a0As a result, it will impact on sexual and reproductive health and psycho social wellbeing of children. While World Vision already has anecdotal evidences of a rise in child marriages in India, UNESCO anticipates that with COVID, there would be a risk of reversing at least 20 years of gains made for child education and social empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us not allow our child to take a backseat.\u00a0It is our social responsibility to handhold the deprived children and ensures their dreams are realized!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sankalp promotes child education by providing scholarship of upto INR 10,000 per child per annam who are on the verge of dropping out from school due to socio-economic constraints.\u00a0We support children education upto class 10.These children are exceptionally bright and deserving,\u00a0and hailing from lower economic strata such as orphans, children of single parents, daily wage labourers, housemaids etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The scholarship currently holds a greater significance as this is the time when these young children in dire need of support.\u00a0This scholarship will help deprived children to get back to schools and will be of a great support to the parents who are already into the gruelling battle of poverty. Most importantly, this support will enable children to make informed choices!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
