A free school under a bridge in India via DIY.

Founder of a free school for slum children Rajesh Kumar Sharma, second from right, and Laxmi Chandra, right, write on black boards, painted on a building wall, at a free school run under a metro bridge in New Delhi, India. At least 30 children living in the nearby slums have been receiving free education from this school for the last three years.

  1. Kudos to these students for their desire to better themselves.
    Praises to these teachers who have selflessly given of themselves.
    May our schools in the developed world see these two qualities and return to them
    and then give thanks for the blessings we have beyond this basic educational environment!!

  2. So how do we donate to this? I couldn’t find any information on how to help.
