Give the Gift of Education: Support My Strides for Literacy!

I'm lacing up my shoes for the India Literacy Project's Strides for Literacy! I'm committed to walking/running 200 miles in 8 weeks to raise funds for children's education in rural India.

Imagine a school with meager resources, overworked teachers, and limited learning tools. This is the reality for many children in rural India. ILP is working to change that by focusing on:

  • Schooling: Keeping children in school.
  • Learning: Enhancing learning with innovative methods.
  • Earning: Developing career paths for students.

ILP supports children's education in an innovative and low-cost way. For instance, to support science education, it has designed a portable science kit with 150 experiments in physics, chemistry, and biology, using materials that can be easily replenished in local villages. Typically, it costs less than $2 to support a child's education for an entire year.

Your support can transform lives:

  • $1000: Supports interactive classrooms with science kits and digital lessons for 300 children.
  • $500: Funds a library program, improving reading skills for 500 children.
  • $250: Trains 100 teachers in digital learning, science kits, and career guidance.
  • $200: Supports "Vidya Saathi," a village-based resource addressing learning loss for 30 children.
  • $120: Provides hands-on science kits for 300 children.
  • $50: Supports the retention of 2 children in school.
  • $25: Sponsors career guidance for 100 students.
