The Organization - Rachana

• Project background
• About fifty children have dropped out from school
  because they live in a remote hill area and had
  to walk four to six hours every day to reach the
  school. They are all from economically backward
  classes. Rachana recently started a 2-room hostel
  for 25 of them with the help of a local social
  worker. It is only a temporary arrangement, as
  they don't have sufficient funds. They would like
  to rent a bigger place so that they can
  accommodate all the children and gradually move
  them to mainstream education. Therefore, they are
  searching for financial help for this project.
