Fight The Gap with Sai Prasuna

ABOUT U&I TRUST

U&I creates platforms for young people to step up, lead and be the change through the power of volunteering. Co-founded in 2011 by Satish Manchikanti and Ajit Sivaram, U&I was born when a few friends began teaching English and ICT to students from marginalized backgrounds. U&I has since grown into a large group of passionate volunteers.

U&I currently reaches 39+ cities across India, positively impacting 2000+ lesser-privileged children through its U&I Teach initiative, where volunteers are equipped to teach and mentor students. U&I Teach empowers students by providing them with quality after-school education, helping them fulfill their dreams and aspirations.

We whole-heartedly believe in the work we do; investing in the lives of students who wouldn’t otherwise have a shot at succeeding in life.

ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN

The COVID-19 Pandemic has widened the gap in learning outcomes for millions of students in India. The Gap includes skyrocketing dropout rates, as well as declining levels of foundational literacy and numeracy. The Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), conducted by Pratham and the National Achievement Survey (NAS), in collaboration with the Government of India, is clear evidence of the Gap. It’s evident that the vast majority of those unable to bridge the Gap come from lesser-privileged backgrounds.

It’s incumbent on us to #FighttheGreatestGap. The power of YOU and I to stand in the Gap is greater than ever before. Together, we can fight to empower India’s children. The next four weeks gives each of us the opportunity to do our bit to #FighttheGreatestGap.

WHY DONATE?

Your assistance and support will help us reach more lesser-privileged children who were affected by the pandemic and are left without means to continue with or access quality after-school education. Your support will also help us effectively support the ones already enrolled in our Learning Centers. Help us in our mission to equip these children to fight the Gap!

Together, let’s #FighttheGreatestGap!
