Access to education should not be a privilege, it is a right to rise above any religion, caste or poverty. And despite this, 60 million children are unable to attend school, most of them girls. Providing education to children, no matter where they are from, is one of the biggest and true steps towards ending poverty can anyone take.
We I Can Foundation focus on refining the conditions by which children can receive quality education, especially among girls in marginalised or less privileged communities. To do this, we work closely in rural, slums, semi rural and villages. Education is a major tool that enables girls and women to participate in and voice decisions that can affect their lives, which can certainly improve their social status in society. We are committed towards the provision of education and their rights and empowerment of girls from the most marginalised sections of society and to enable effective implementation of a strong and inclusive and gender sensitive environment.
I CAN FOUNDATION a dream empowers us to cherish the life of impoverished and ignored people from vulnerable backgrounds to overcome adversity and flourish in a fast changing world. We are blessed by God who enables us to practice and processes efforts to build the dream of countless people. I Can Foundation is about instilling the 'Yes, I can' confidence among the less-fortunate people.
