Send Every Girl to School

Sumita on her way to school

It is rightly said if mother is literate, her children cannot remain illiterate. Keeping this universal truth in mind, Turnstone Global has initiated the project every girl in school in 2015. We emphasize mostly on girl child because it has been noticed that families generally tries to send their boy child to school but neglect the girl child to do the same thinking that investing on girl child is futile depending on the notion that there is no need to educate a girl as her prime responsibility always inclined to household chores.

Under this program since five years we encourage that every girl should go to school regularly.

We counsel the families intermittently .Rescue the girls from the victim of child labour

Intervene when the family tries to forcefully arrange marriage for the girl below 18 years or until she completes class XII.

We support a girl child with School fee, Uniform cost, Stationary cost, Sponsor books, Dry ration and cooked protein food.

Presently we are serving 157 girls.
