THE BACKDROP

Underprivileged children and youth do not always have a chance to develop a love for reading and get access to creative pursuits. This limits their world of opportunities and possibilities. Access to books is one of the biggest obstacles and the biggest opportunity in equalising children's literacy. Reading will inspire each child to innovate, dream and build their own independent future. Every child deserves to belong, feel loved and have this chance.

THE INITIATIVE 

The ACE Book Club (ABC) is a community and a library on wheels. It is a vehicle with about 10000+ books that have been loved by children and donated so that more children can experience the joy of reading. This creates a platform where underprivileged children can have access to a library, foster sharing of ideas with other children and adult volunteers.

ALL FUNDING HAS 80G BENEFITS.



The ACE book club was conceptualised by Avantika Swali, a 14 year old student in Mumbai who also founded an NGO called ACE. ACE is committed to providing equal opportunities to children irrespective of their financial status. Avantika’s dream is to build a happy and safe community for children and to promote a life long love for reading and learning.






PROTOTYPE: MOBILE LIBRARY VAN 


COST BREAKUP



ABOUT ME

My name is Ethan D’Souza. I am 15 years old and in Grade 10 at the Bombay Scottish School, Powai.

I am doing this campaign because I think the gift of reading is something that every child deserves but not all of them are lucky to have. I cannot imagine the plight of underprivileged children who do not have access to books. It is important that every child gets access to reading irrespective of their financial situation. This can make a profound difference to the life of a fellow student in Mumbai.

Through this campaign, I am to help create equal opportunities to all children by inculcating in them the love of learning and discovery, thereby empowering them to innovate and become life-long learners and doers. We must lend a helping hand and ensure that the quality of life for these children are improved.

Please support my campaign and be a part of this unique experience where we can change lives.


THE ROUTE

ABOUT THE NGO

Education is a fundamental right for every child, yet many children don’t have this opportunity. The idea of setting up mobile libraries was conceptualised by Avantika Swali, a 15 year old student in Mumbai to provide equal opportunities to children irrespective of their financial status. ACE is committed to providing the opportunity of a loving education in a holistic environment, so every child has the chance to reach his full inborn potential.

All Care for Everyone (ACE) is a non-profit organisation based in Mumbai born from a passion for equality. Our vision is to provide the opportunity of a loving education in a holistic environment so every child has the chance to reach his full potential. ACE stands for ‘all care for everyone and our goal is to spread as much hope, love, joy and equality as possible. ACE raises money by hosting sales and selling baked goods, T-shirts and jewellery all designed in the organisation itself. ACE partners with the Dharavi school in Mumbai and the Gift a Smile foundation and has sponsored the education of over 500 children to date.

How does crowdfunding work?

Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept & is growing very quickly.

It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream.com is a crowdfunding platform in India that allows for such pooling of funds. You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.

Updates have been committed to after the campaign ends.
