B. About Udaan Project
Udaan as the name suggests aims to deliver wings in form of Education that can lead any younger future of India to fly and live the dreams he/she always dreams of. The project paves a way for all those kids who are in search of an identity and are ready to work hard to achieve it. Less than half of India’s children between age 6 and 14 go to school. Out of those left children only 29% of them go to private schools the other 71% go to municipal schools. We feel that children are the future of a country and we want them to be skilled and be the brand ambassadors of the future India we believe in success stories and we make them happen and make them employable.
Thus it aims to deliver scholarships to the kids that are selected after a hefty selection process. And with this even more heftier selection process is prepared for all those working at the back end of this project that are all the donors who take responsibility of kid they adopt for imparting further education.
