I think that helping kids is truly a good thing to do. Not everybody gets the education or the family that most of us have now. That is why it is important to give them the privilege to start their lives in a good way. I love reading books because it helps vocabulary, fluency, and in this case helps kids learn. I will be reading mostly young adult fiction books during the readathon.
Support a child’s right to an education!
Pratham is a grass roots organization committed to the task of removing illiteracy in India.
SeeYourImpact.org is a revolutionary way to help those in need around the world.
All funds raised in Pratham’s Readathon will be used to enable less fortunate children in India to succeed in school.
Just $14 provides a year of after-school tutoring to a child in India through Pratham’s Read India Program.
When you support a child in Pratham’s Readathon through SeeYourImpact.org, you are not only supporting primary education of disadvantaged children in India and making a positive impact on their future, you are also encouraging children here to develop an appreciation for reading, introducing them to the gift of giving and helping them to appreciate the excellent education available in the US.
Even better, you’ll meet the child in India who is matched to your donation!
