  Beschreibung

  The right to education is one of the major human rights. However, schools are not available for everyone especially in the rural areas of India. We want to change that.
  
  Our organisation is located in Mastipur, Bodhgaya. In this area, 90 percent of the families live below the poverty line. Most of the people here belong to the lowest casts and are uneducated and unprivileged. In our school, we try to tackle those issues by providing education to more than 100 children. We believe that education is the key for a better living situation for future generations.
  
  We are not only providing formal education, children also get one healthy meal a day and can join sports or meditation programs.
  
  We are not only working with kids. We also run a women empowerment program, which provide women with computer courses.
  
  We need help and support from volunteers to move on together in happiness for children and ourselves.
  
  Gaya District - lies within the state of Bihar with a total population of about 500000 people.
