We are excited to announce the first two recipients of the awards for the girls scholarship initiative that Anand Charity is funding in partnership with the Nanubhai Educational Foundation. Ms. Mohini Mahida and Ms. Urvashi Chaudhari are both pursuing higher education at colleges after passing the HSC (class XII) examination. Watch this space for more details about the girls and their reaction on getting the scholarships.

Once again everyone at Anand Charity would like to thank our kind donors who have made this possible.

The Nanubhai Education Foundation has had tremendous impact with the English and IT education programs funded by Anand Charity. Our first grant enabled Nanubhai to successfully execute English Language Programs, Computer Classes, and Capacity Building Programs at Kadod High School. Encouraged by the success at Kadod, Nanubhai has partnered with three new high schools (Madhi High School, Bajipura High School and Khatiwala High School) to expand the impact of English and IT programs.

As we step into the New Year, we are happy to publish our progress report on the Nanubhai Project. The grant from Anand Charity is aimed at empowering underprivileged students (from Standards 4 through 12) through English and IT enrichment programs. The preliminary benefits of both these programs have been evaluated and are summarized below.
