Others were Haider Somani, the director of Rwenzori Beverages whose family has contributed over $800,000 towards healthcare support.
Subject-English medium school project for “free education” of downtroddens
Dear Sir/Madam
I run a registered,formal ,mainstream,day,co-educational English medium school which provides quality and “free education” to the downtrodden children in India. These students need “not pay” any “school fees” throughout the year. The school started in 2005. The school started with Lower KG (Lower pre-primary). Gradually one class is increasing every year. The present year Class-II has been opened. So the total classes at present are- Lower KG, Upper KG, Class-1, Class-2. The school has been planned to open till class-12(twelve), so that these vulnerable children become matured and are able to stand on their own feet. They can earn for their livelihood and to sustain ownself, their family and their future studies after passing out from this school.
My school project is registered in “United Nations” online volunteering.It is a global ,non profit,charity organisation of Bonn,Germany.

“Tax Exemption” have been granted to my school organisation, by Indian Government.
As India had been ruled by British for more than 200 years, and as a result, English has become the official language throughout the country.English is also the major communicating language in India. The ex-students with English medium background are getting the first preference in job nationally as English serves to be the major communicating language in India. But the downtrodden children are deprived from this privilege of good and quality English education due to extreme financial crisis. As the parents/guardians of these downtrodden children, often have to tolerate the pathos of letting their children go starved. So they cannot afford for good English education which is very expensive.
Please extend your best cooperation , in order to develop these helpless,poverty struck,vulnerable children to achieve bright,safe & secured future.
Please let me know,other organisations of your knowledge,which can be of help to the development of my school’s downtrodden children.
Thank you for your consideration and time.
I look forward to hear.
