In the villages of Kutch in India, robbed of identity and denied education, children were resorting to the only other alternative; child labor, robbing themselves of a childhood and any possibility of a future. Today, this area stands for freedom. Reclaimed ...land was distributed to the landless for farming, medical and education facilities were revived. This has been possible only with your support.

A new year is around the corner. A time to pursue new dreams; of being a better person, working in a better job, making the world a better place. Armed with an education our dreams are ours for the taking.
But poverty, social bias, ignorance, indifference, etc. prevent many children in India from learning. Shouldn't they too have an equal chance to realize their dreams?

On the occasion of World Literacy day, CRY's 'My School' initiative captures 750 children's creative expressions on what they want from their school on postcards. These children are from CRY's project areas in Gujarat and Maharashtra, India. The intent is to bring in children’s voices that are currently amiss in the Ri...ght to Education act to sensitise people on the situation of children's education. These postcards were displayed at various public places in Mumbai and onlookers were requested to leave a message for children on what they would like for children in the arena of education.
