Empowering Children Through Education

Empowering Children Through Education

Children from disadvantaged communities often face barriers that disrupt their education—economic hardship and long-standing gender norms being the most critical. Girls, in particular, are at a higher risk of dropping out due to these challenges.

At Plan India, we are committed to breaking these barriers. Our latest initiative focuses on empowering every child—especially girls—to stay in school and thrive. By July 2026, we aim to distribute 50,000 education kits across 5,000 villages, reaching children from marginalized communities, with a strong focus on girls from underprivileged families.

These kits will provide essential learning tools to help school-going children continue their education and transition confidently into the next academic year.

Together, we can ensure no child is left behind. Join us in creating lasting impact through the power of education.

What’s in the Education Kit –

  • Notebooks and stationery
  • A sturdy school bag
  • Hygiene essentials
  • Access to online learning materials
