“The Hummingbird School is my only hope to succeed in life. I feel I am trying to swim out of this place (Majuli) and my school stands as a beacon on the other side of the river. If my school closes down, I feel I will drown in this river. Not just me but every child in villages around here and our families depend on this school”, says Roopjyoti, a bright, young student of Ayang Trust’s The Hummingbird School.Majuli Island, where The Hummingbird School is situated, faces severe floods and constant riverbank erosion, leaving most of its residents struggling to survive. For the children of this impoverished tribal community, education remains their only path to hope and dignity.Your support to Ayang Trust’s Hummingbird School can ensure that its students can have a future different from their parents who are struggling to get even two meals a day.

The extent of the struggles here was beyond my imagination. These villages had no connectivity to the outside world, and very limited access to healthcare and quality education”, says Bipin Dhane, founder of the school. Bipin, who grew up in the small town of Satara in Maharashtra, faced countless financial hardships. Despite his struggles, Bipin secured admission to the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and then went on to take up a job in Singapore. Owing to his childhood experiences Bipin was always inclined towards helping the less fortunate, and he believed in the transformative power of education. It was in 2016 that Bipin left his lucrative career abroad and moved to Majuli, to provide the children from this inaccessible river island education they were deprived of.“Whatever little money I had saved, I gave it to my parents. I had no money to start the school. It was then that villagers came together to build bamboo huts. Each family donated bamboo, wood, and whatever little they could. It was the parents of our students who erected huts for the school to start”, shares Bipin while talking about the inception of The Hummingbird School in 2017.Help Bipin save underprivileged children of Majuli Island from generational poverty and give them a chance to succeed. Donate now.Donate to save future generations“People of the island value education greatly because they know that their children have no future without it. Parents have vested their faith in The Humming Bird School because they don't want their children to suffer the way they have been”, says Bipin. Bipin says, “Today we have over 300 students in our school and about 90 children live in our hostel. Many of these children are orphaned or come from single-parent households, struggling each day without adequate care or resources.. I urge each one of you to come forward and donate to us so we can help hundreds of children escape from the cycle of poverty and build lives of dignity, hope, and opportunity.”Donate to this fundraiser by Give, India’s largest and most trusted online donation platform, to help children of Majuli Island get an education and break the cycle of poverty.

Especially for girl children who, despite their academic achievements, are deprived of the chance to fulfill their dreams. I started sponsoring the education of girl children from my salary. Today, Vidya Poshak has supported the education of over 15,000 students. Many of our girls now hold jobs in top companies and government sectors. None of this would have been possible without the opportunity to learn," shares Venkatesh, the founder of Vidya Poshak.<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/387a09f4-8641-44aa-9309-c699a6323c27.webp" />Why donate to this fundraiserThrough your support, Vidya Poshak provides financial aid, mentorship, and educational resources to ensure that no deserving girl is left behind.

We are conserving critical Himalayan ecology in Uttarakhand

Environment

Gramya Sikshan Paryavaran Sanstha (GRAMYA) is a grassroot action organization committed to educational upliftment of geographically underprivileged Himalayan children and conservation of the Himalayan biodiversity especially in the Western Indian Himalayan region. Villagers of Dumak (one of the most remote villages in Uttarakhand) started Gramya in 1998 primarily to run a secondary school in the village. The school helped in increasing student enrollment of the village in secondary school from below 5% to 100%. Gradually it helped in increasing enrolment of students in senior secondary and higher education from this village and other neighbouring villages. GRAMYA has also been engaged in environmental activities premierly focusing on environmental education, oak forest conservation and community forest governance. For many years, it was one of the implementing agencies of the 'National Environment Awareness Campaign' - a flagship scheme of the government of India. It has also played an instrumental role in forming the state level organization of Sarpanch (president) of Van Panchayats (Village forest councils) in the state of Uttarakhand. The Uttarakhand Van Panchayat Sarpanch Sangathan formed by GRAMYA has been engaged on policy issues related to community forest governance in Uttarakhand.
