Kamta loves eating sweets
posted August 13, 2012
Thank you for coming together to support Kamta’s education for an entire year.
Eight year old Kamta’s parents migrate from Navada in Bihar to work in the brick kilns of Kanpur for six months every year. Kamta is, therefore, unable to attend a regular school.
Kamta is very happy that her parents work at a brick kiln where an Apna Skool centre is up and running. A student of Grade 1, Kamta loves spending time in her school where she gets to wear a school uniform. She meticulously keeps her uniform clean everyday.
She looks forward to the story telling sessions in her class and is now able to read short stories too. Kamta’s elder sister Hema also attends Apna Skool. Their living conditions are such that they are denied even very basic sanitation facilities and clean drinking water at the brick kilns. Apna skool provides them a different world at least for a few hours of the day.
Kamta looks forward to 15th of August and 26th of January every year when the Independence Day and the Republic day celebrations are held at school, especially because she gets to eat extra sweets on these days!
Thank you, Clare, Nat, Cindy and Utkarsha, for coming together to provide an entire year of comprehensive medical care to Kamta.
Thank you, RoseMarie, for your donation of one year of study materials to Kamta.
Thank you, Tony, for donating two sets of school uniforms to Kamta.
Thank you, Microsoft Employees and Don, for coming together to donate an entire year of school lunches to Kamta.
Your generosity will ensure that Kamta is able to rise to her full potential.
