Finally…after long hours of convincing, his parents agree! Ajay is now happily studying in Duttpada School and tells us cheerfully “Thank you teacher. Now mummy papa have put me in school.” Sounds fairy talish, but true.
This primary role of this column is to make people aware that it does not take much to make a difference. We just need to keep our eyes open and keep doing the small things. In Ajay’s case, one of our volunteers doggedly visited his parents, the schools nearby, and gave his parents a wealth of information. She also tried and gave them options as to where they could make him study as per his and their (parents’) convenience. This has reaped rewards, as now, DreamIndia2020 has yet another feather up its cap. And has helped continue the education of yet another child!
