About:
My name is Khushi Virmani. I am 13 years old and a Grade 9th student at Jayshree Periwal Global School, Jaipur.
I have undertaken this campaign because I was surprised to learn that many students from low-income homes in Rajasthan, who go to school (mainly government and public schools) do not have basic school gear like proper footwear or a school bag and often sit on the hard ground in order to study at school.
All students deserve to be be treated equally and get the best education. The students sit on the ground for long hours, this results in many posture-related problems. School is supposed to be fun learning environment for everybody and helping these students achieve their dreams and will surely give all the students to smile and come to school!
The back-to-school kit costs just INR 950. It consists of a pair of recycled footwear, a recycled study mat to sit comfortably at school or home and a recycled school bag for books. This is a very small amount to impact a student. Fund INR 1900 for example and transform the lives of 2 students.
Please support my campaign and let us together impact the health, school attendance, and grades of these fellow students. This kit also brings a big smile to their faces and gives them a lot of confidence.
