Aim/Objective/Mission: In 1996, Indraani Singh founded
Literacy India, a non-profit, charitable organization.
In doing so, she gave many slum and street children freedom
from begging, forced labour and exploitation. From its
first beginnings in Gurgaon, Haryana, Literacy India has
come a long way. It provides basic education, learning
through theatre, and serves a basic meal to the children
while they are school. Its aim is to ensure the children
are brought up to a standard where they can effortlessly
join mainstream schools – both public and government.
The teams at Literacy India have a three pronged strategy:
1. Awareness –( Jagrukta) 2. Shiksaarth ( Theatre
in education workshops 3. Pathshala ( open school) They
have a non-formal school – Vidyapeeth and offer
vocational training in the `Karigar’ module. Nearly
170 children benefit from Literacy India’s programmes. |
