India has more then 20,000 schools/collages throughout India!
History has shown time and again that individuals/School and Collage can bring about large scale positive change in the world by seemingly insignificant acts. Teaching less privileged children is one such powerful act which can go a long way in removing illiteracy and solving many other problems in India.
Many individuals/School and Collage can try to fill the gaps in education provided by formal Schools/Collages.
Quite often children of rickshawwalas, peons, autowalas, milkmans, maids etc. are unable to go to school due to financial reasons. Individuals/School and Collage can atleast take the initiative to provide functional literacy (reading and writing skills that are adequate to cope with the demands of everyday life) to such children. Individuals/School and Collage can also teach adults, who haven't managed to get education while fighting for roti, kapda and makan. Each School Teach One (EST1) concept is about owning up our social responsibility to share our learnings with the less privileged section of our society. It's Individuals/School and Collage choice how you want to make a positive difference.
