rajesh-2Rajesh’s Venture: Dropout Child Education

A natural born changemaker, Rajesh Ravi wasn’t just going to sit and do nothing about the issue that bothered him most - ‘Dropouts’. He has already helped 12 dropouts head back to school for the completion of their education.

Dropouts naturally face blows on concentration, self esteem when sent back to school.  To cope with this Rajesh started evening classes from 7.00 to 9.30, where all would sit together and discuss the problems and challenges they faced during their day at school/college.

Getting stationery and books was a hindrance for some dropouts. So with the help of a charitable trust, Rajesh arranged for all kinds of stationery and books for them.

8 students had dropped out due to economic and family problems. Rajesh solved all of those issues and made special arrangements for these students to get admitted back in school.

With the help of 3 team members Rajesh is confident of achieving his target of re-enrolling all the dropouts from his community.
