Every morning, Kanza* runs through the narrow lanes of the slum community with her school bag bouncing behind her. The five-year-old’s eyes light up as she reaches the Beacon Learning Centre (BLC). Her family migrated from a village in Uttar Pradesh in search of a better life.
But sadly, they found only hardship. Her father works as a daily wage carpenter, but his work slowed down after a knee surgery. With no steady income, the family struggled to manage even basic needs. Her mother stayed home, caring for Kanza and her older brother, who studies in a nearby school.
When her mother heard about Vision Rescue’s BLC, she reached out to enrol Kanza. In June 2024, Kanza was enrolled in Nursery. She received nutritious meals, an education kit, and regular health checkups at BLC. These were things her parents never imagined they could afford. Her mother says, “She comes home very happy after BLC. She even tells me she wants to become a police officer.” At home, she loves playing with her brother. Thank you, dear donors, you gave Kanza an education and a reason to smile.
