Sisters are the first to arrive at the Center

Thank you for supporting Eureka SuperKidz (ESK) in their efforts to provide under-privileged children with quality education. In the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, more than 50% of children in grades 3 to 5 are unable to read, write, and do basic math. Your contributions help after-school support classes that provide high quality education to children who have fallen behind. They develop fun activities to keep the children involved.

Ilakiya and Initha study in class 3 and class 5, respectively, at a school near the ESK center in Tamil Nadu, India. These sisters are the first ones to come to the Eureka Super Kids center and start studying. According to the tutor, the sisters were very silent and less participative upon arrival but now they are quite the opposite. Ilakiya takes initiative to teach the other children in the group while her sister loves to study English and has shown improvement at school. When asked to speak in English, Initha gleamed with enthusiasm, listed all the birds and animals she knew, and gave wonderful details on her family.

Ilakiya and Initha’s parents both work to support their children’s education. Her mother works under the 100 day employment scheme (NREGA). With your support, Barbara and Indu, these sisters are making great strides in and out of the classroom.
