Hi,

B N Kumar sir and PRCI:

Thank you so much for the award from PRCI-YCC, presented during the Pune Conclave.

After receiving the award from the chief guest Mr. Kumar Ketkar at Symbiosis Vishwabhavan, on 10th march 2018, I developed confidence and  started my work with full enthusiasm on my dream project to start a pre-school for the children below the age group of 8 years

i.e from lower KG TO 2ND standard.

This project is for for those kids whose parents keep migrating from one place to another and due to the lack of documents they do not get admission in any other government/private school.

Therefore, the agenda of this free school is to provide basic education as well as a the school leaving certificate. The Shiksha Foundation with which I have been associated for few years already has the permission to run a school till 4th class.

But a major problem that we faced each and every time was place for the school premises which meant lot of funds which we do not have.

On receiving the YCC award, my confidence levels doubled and I was inspired to work on the school project with added vigour!, I also used the award in support of my dream project. All that I needed was an inspiration and new drive which, sir,  I got from PRCI-YCC.

Thank you so much BNK sir and PRCI.

While promoting the project, I met a Mr. Sudhakar Kamath who ffully understood the concept and expressed his readiness to give 4,000 sq ft to run the school at Palghar-Manor on the putskirts of Mumbai, that too on a lease of just Rs. 10/-

He has also promised to fulfill all the requirements by October 2018.

It is the stepping stone towards realising dream and I have no words to express my appreciation to the encouragement that I received from PRCI-YCC.

With your and PRCI’s blessings, I am sure, we will succeed in providing basic, quality education to the children of migrant labour.

Thank You So Much Sir

Regards

NITIGNYA WAGHELA
