Students of Satya Bharti Schools of Farrukhabad and Gurgawan clusters in Uttar Pradesh conducted an awareness campaign on education and empowerment of the Girl Child. During school enrolment and parent-teacher meetings, the students took the opportunity to spread this message and gather parents’ support, especially from the mothers. It was heartening to note the liberal views of most of the Mothers on the importance of education as well as empowerment of girls. They also appreciated the Foundation’s initiative on providing free quality education and holistic development with a special focus on the Girl Child. The main objectives of the campaign were as follows:

•     Encourage girls to believe in their potential and follow their dreams of quality education
•     Create recognition platforms for the efforts of girl children towards changing the mind-set of the society
•     Ensure sensitivity in the community towards the safety of girl children
•     Ensure that the parents of girls take pride in their daughter(s) and provide them ample opportunities to be self-reliant.
•     Girls passing out of Satya Bharti Schools to emerge as role models and become true change agents of their society.
