Aditya: December 2022 Student of the Month

Meet Aditya, our December 2022 Student of the Month. 

Aditya is seven years old and attends the One Life Movement learning center in Vakola, Mumbai. As an only child, Aditya lives with his father, who owns a small plant nursery, and his mother, who stays at home as a housewife. Their financial situation is difficult, so they live off a footpath in the city with no house to call their own. Instead of sleeping under a roof, they have to tie a sheet of plastic up to create a makeshift covering for when they sleep. 

It was Aditya’s father who first learned about One Life Movement and all the educational programs available at the different locations. Once he realized there was one in Vakola close to where they live, he knew that he needed to send Aditya there so he could get a better education. 

When Aditya first came to the Vakola learning center, he was completely unable to read or write, but now that he regularly attends the learning center, he has learned how to write and is well on his way towards fluent reading. Aditya’s teachers praise him for improving so much in his studies in such a short period of time. 

We are so happy to help provide high-quality education to Aditya and hundreds of children like him in similar situations, but we couldn’t make such a big impact without your help. Consider joining us today by donating to the cause. A donation of any size will help us tremendously in our mission to provide education to underprivileged children all across India.
