Giving Something back to society!!

"But mom, I don't want to go to school!'. These are the words that are heard all too often around the globe. Why sit in a classroom learning things when you could be out frolicking around in the outdoors? And not everyone is lucky enough to be affording school at early age. Poverty they say is a nation's curse.

It is a fact that early childhood is a crucial stage of life in terms of a child's physical, intellectual, emotional and social development. Learning capabilities of humans continue for the rest of their lives, but not at the intensity that is demonstrated in the preschool years. Studies suggests that growth of mental and physical abilities progress at an astounding rate and a very high proportion of learning takes place from birth to age six. This is exactly the reason why children need high quality personal care and learning experiences. 

Education is about far more than the marks you receive. It’s about understanding right from wrong and having the knowledge to stay afloat in today’s society. It helps to develop your perspective on the world around you and pushes you to think both creatively and conceptually. It allows us to process information and make conclusions and inferences based on what we already know. And for a fact, it aids in career advancements more often than not.  Today's globalization and advancements in technology wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for furthering education. We may believe that, Education key to escape generational poverty.


Despite our willingness to come forward and help a lending hand to the needy, there are always excuses that tend to keep the needy at bay. Helping in whatever way we can is great. Even if it means just spreading word on people doing good so it reaches the concerned. Here I am sharing something I recently came across while listening to BIG FM.

Maatram Foundation seems to be doing its share on making education affordable to all.
