Program Description
Mahila Evam Shishu Kalyan Parishad (MESKP) runs an initiative committed to reducing school dropout rates in children from backward families in rural areas of Bihar. Surveys revealed that lack of money to buy stationery, uniforms, textbooks and school fees is one of the primary reasons for dropping out of school. Those children are deprived of studies and start working to help their families.
MESKPs with the help of volunteers collect data based dropouts by contacting school officials and village families. In which children in the age group of 6-15 years who need assistance are identified. After this, these children are given school fees and gifts (stationery, uniform, textbooks and copies etc).
