You can Teach India says Times of India
Here is yet another initiative which uses internet to create awareness for a social cause. Teach India is a nation wide initiative from Times of India network. Teach India is not asking for donation. Its asking to spend some time to teach underprivileged children. Over 60 NGOs, schools and corporates are supporting the initiative.
Over 10,000 people have already signed up for this initiative. Some firms have already pledged 50 employees per week for 2 hours a week. India Times is trying something unique which is trying to provide a platform for everyone to contribute to the development of the country. According to an estimate, there are around 287 illiterate Indians who needs some sort of motivation to go back to school. Right now Teach India initiative is limited to the four metros only. Here is an interesting article on how we are trying to kill the Right to Education Bill. I am sure this initiative can definitely make a difference to the way we work for a social cause.
If you think you can spend 2 hours every week teaching something which you know, please sign up for Teach India.
