Support and contribute to Bighelp education Initiative ADOPT A SCHOOL in India

With more than 7,40,000 schools India operates the biggest education system in the world. In India today, 4% of our children never start school. 58% don’t complete primary schools. And 90% don’t complete school & about only 10% of our children go on to college both saddens and angers us. 

There are many organizations and NGOs are in existence in India that have a common goal mainly, a better education, eradicating poverty, food for all, childcare, better quality living standard, and many more. We have found one of the novel organizations‘ Bighelp’ which aims for basic and formal education for all children in India.

The objective of Adopt A School program is to strengthen Government schools that are providing formal education in rural areas in India. These schools provide full-time schooling for children with the syllabus prescribed by the government. The formal schools being supported by Bighelp are the schools that have been neglected by local communities and government officials.  

The children attending these schools pay little or no fees and come from low socio-economic backgrounds. The goal of this program is to increase the student enrollment & retention rate, incorporate good teaching and learning techniques in government schools and ensure that the education that the children receive is effective.

Under this program, donors can adopt a public school in remote villages in India to provide basic facilities like drinking water, sports equipment, lab equipment, teaching/learning material, school building infrastructure, additional teachers, restrooms (toilets), uniforms, or books to the students. It takes a minimum of US$1500 to adopt a school.  

This amount may be higher depending on the current status of the school and its requirements. A donor can sponsor the entire project by donating US$1500.

Donors may donate any amount they like; in that case, their donations will be pooled with other donations to fund a project. Bighelp surveys schools and fulfills their requirements in the order of their priority. Projects are implemented in the name of donors and all the details are published on their website.

Bighelp also conducts various initiatives like Sponsor A Child, Talent Search, Special Needs, Merit Awards. The objective of the Sponsor A Child program is to fund and sponsor the education of children in India who are at risk of discontinuing their schooling due to very impoverished circumstances.

The goal of this program is to prevent dropouts from orphans or financially backward children. In addition to getting financial assistance (worth Rs 250 per month), in this program children are benefited from more individual attention by our project directors and project committees that have been established at each project location.
