evergreen programme
education is the only thing they cannot take ✦
a school year for a child who would have stopped
why this exists ↓
In rural India, the gap between primary and secondary school swallows half of every cohort. Most don't fail — they drop because the family needed the money. We pay the fees, the books, the uniform, the bus. The child stays. The child becomes someone.

I want to be a doctor. Not for a city. For my own village. So my mother does not have to walk eleven kilometres when she has fever.
Priya is in Class 7 at her village government school. Her family — five children, one earner — was about to pull her out at the end of last year so she could help her mother in the fields. Our scholarship covers the ₹6,000 annual cost of staying in school, plus a small stipend that compensates the family for the lost labour. Priya scored 94% in her last exams. Her teacher believes she is one of three students in the school who will make it to medical college. She is the first girl in her family who has stayed in school past Class 5.
