Help Sponsor education for underprivileged children
Hi Everyone!
I am Saachi Gurav, the national finalist of Glamanand Supermodel India 2021. I have a chance to represent India at the biggest stages in pageants like Miss International, Miss Multinational, Miss Grand International and Miss Tourism World.
As we know Charity is the best reflection of beauty I have taken an initiative to support and sponsor the education of poor kids. Your contributions would help me secure a bright future for underprivileged children who cannot afford education.
Even today, one of the major problems is rampant illiteracy in India. The literacy rate in the country stands at 74.04% (according to the National Census, 2011). When it comes to children, the effects of illiteracy are manifold. {Source: CRY}
1 in 4 children of school-going age is out of school in our country
99 million children in total have dropped out of school (Census 2011)
Out of every 100 children, only 32 children finish their school education age-appropriately (District Information System for Education (DISE) 2014-15). Only 2% of the schools offer complete school education from Class 1 to Class 12 (District Information System for Education (DISE) 2014-15). There are 10.13 million child labourers between 5-14 years in India (Census 2011)
India has 33 million working children between the ages of 5-18 years. In parts of the country, more than half the child population is engaged in labour (Census 2011). 42% of married women in India were married as children (District Information System for Education (DISE 3). 1 in every 3 child brides in the world is a girl in India (UNICEF). India has more than 45 lakh girls under 15 years of age who are married with children. Out of these, 70% of the girls have 2 children (Census 2011)
