Caring teachers help Ashwini succeed

ESK_Ashwini_TeacherSalary
Dear Cindy,

Thank you for supporting Eureka SuperKidz and collaborating to provide six months of salary to a teacher. An AID India Education Initiative, Eureka SuperKidz operates in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, where more than 50% of children in grades 3 to 5 are unable to read, write, and do basic math. Eureka offers after-school support classes that provide high quality education to children who have fallen behind and develop fun activities to keep the children involved. Your contributions ensure Ashwini and other children have access to kind and caring educators.

Ashwini is in class 4 and a regular visitor of the Eureka SuperKidz Center in her area. Her father is a truck driver at Chennai and her mother lays roads under the 100 days employment scheme. Through the center, Ashwini started reading small words and upgraded with ease to reading sentences. She was given reading material to measure her confidence and within 1 minute she read 10 simple words, 7 complex words and 6 sentences of a song without help. This improvement was only possible because of the quality tutors at the center that you supported with your donation.

With support and help from you, Cindy, Ashwini is empowered to spread her knowledge — she now teaches her brother Harish simple addition. She also took interest in his other subjects and took responsibility preparing him for a class test in English. Thank you for your support, Cindy!
