| Project Name | Let's Read |
| Amount Utilized (INR) | 5505048 |
| Project Description | Let's READ promotes reading among children from marginalized communities by ensuring access to well written, beautifully illustrated and culturally relevant
books. The books are selected in keeping with the children’s ages, language competencies and reading abilities. They are sourced from largely Indian publishers,
are multilingual and based on reading assessments of the children. |
| Locations | Mumbai City > Maharashtra (MH) |
| Causes | Education > Promoting reading |
| Beneficiary Group | Children |
| Beneficiary Description | Children who struggle to read tend to fall behind academically. They find it hard to grasp complex written concepts and are unable to keep up with classwork
requirements. We know that children who read are likely to have higher cognitive functioning, better language skills, improved academic performance and greater
confidence. Yet, for many children living in marginalized communities, owning a set of books is a distant dream. These are children who study in municipal schools,
live on the streets or in slum communities, who grow up at construction sites or in children's homes. They are rarely exposed to anything other than school text
books and the resources available to them are not age appropriate or culturally relevant. |
