Impetus to Succeed

Children struggling to get an education at schools where teachers are regularly absent. Girls who drop out of school early due to lack of support at home. Generations who stay stuck in illiteracy and poverty due to the constraints of migrant and child labor.

In a developing nation like India, stories like these have persisted for so long and in such numbers, that it is easy to forget that even today there are many, many individuals trapped in just such realities. But what if someone were to lend them a hand, help them help themselves? Would that make a difference? Will you be the one to provide them a helping hand, an hour of your time - the impetus to succeed?
