Send Village Children to School

Organization information

Gyan Jyoty Rural Development welfare Trust Bodhgaya

Location: Gaya, India

Summary

We are providing education for children who are unable to go to school either because of poverty or family circumstances. Our school is near Bodhgaya, Bihar, India, a Buddhist pilgrimage site where Buddha attained supreme enlightenment. Our village has a high level of illiteracy, and many children are involve in begging from tourists rather than attend school. We ourselves were such children, and we believe that education is a human right, and can dramatically change a child's life.
