Our KBF school gives children within Kolkata the chance to learn to read, write and speak Bengali and English. This means they can gain entry to government schools, opening up a world of opportunities to them.
Through our sponsorship program we are currently able to support over 20 children in schools in Kolkata which is amazing! However, there are still many more who are waiting for sponsorship.
Our child sponsorship program is just £12 a month
This money will support the work of the school project as a whole as well as providing the following support for the individual child you sponsor.
- Stationery and books to support their studies.
- Government school fees and the cost of uniforms when they are ready to attend the local formal school.
- Food and clean drinking water provided by the KBF school project.
- After school activities for older children to develop skills for the future.
The money will also go towards paying for vital resources to enable the project to continue, such as teachers’ salaries and the cost of renting and maintaining the building used by KBF.
The children love receiving letters, photographs and small gifts from you and in turn you will receive a letter and a drawing from your child twice a year.
If you’re interested in sponsoring a child, or if you have further questions, please contact us
