“Education makes a door to bright future.” Beyond its conventional boundaries, education forms the very essence of all our actions. To address the issue of school dropouts, we have learnt through community engagement. Most of the school dropout students from underprivileged communities leave school because of being burdened with household chores missing out on education during their critical formative years.
We at SEWA Rural identified 32 school dropouts, of which Allarakha, Subhash, Shital, Vishal, Ashish and two others were brought back to school after a lot of persuasion. We aim to bring back more and more people like them each year.
