" Millennium Fellow is a great platform to learn new things and it will help me to understand how can i run my project in the real world effectively.
When I started growing up, one question always haunted me: why in my country the underprivileged parents and children are not that much interested in being admitted to the school the education is free? Then I realize it is not possible to get proper education without educational instruments and those things cost a lot of money which some parents can not afford. I really want to find the solution to this problem therefore me and my friend started to work on a nonprofitable project known as ' Education For All. Our project basically works for the underprivileged children that are deprived of getting educational instruments. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Education Unlocked : The Light of Hope
This a project that I work on under a non-profit social organization named Young Learners Association. First and foremost, I work with children who are deprived of education; I provide them with educational materials so that they can continue their education. Second, we have over a hundred active members; our main goal is to find underage children who cannot afford education costs; we look for them and particularly assist them in moving to various locations. Finally, we are currently working in the city of Chittagong in Bangladesh, but we hope to expand our work to other cities for the betterment of our country's children because we believe that our young generation is the backbone of our nation, and without proper education, we cannot hope for a prosperous nation.
