A professional as a career choice and a social activist by compassion, Bharti Singh Chauhan is making a huge difference in the lives of women and children through her Jaipur-based NGO, Praveen Lata Sansthan. Have you read her story?

Her NGO carries out multiple projects aimed at providing education for the underprivileged and empowering rural women.

Praveen Lata Sansthan initiated an E-Pathshala to facilitate computer learning amongst the impoverished girls. Out of the 255 girls registered with her NGO, 145 girls from the age of 6 to 19 years are currently taught computer at their center.

Every day from 4 to 7 pm, the volunteers from various educational institutions take up computer lessons for these girls.

Bharti feels, “Computer literacy has become a basic skill requirement everywhere these days. And, we want  the girls in our NGO to learn new technology as it can open a million opportunities and job avenues for them in the future.”

“Till now, we had been managing with three computers and two laptops. However, the computers are not in workable conditions right now; and it’s getting difficult to teach so many girls with only two laptops which, too, lack backup and proper functioning server,” she added.

“All the girls are so eager to learn. And, by each passing day, more girls are joining us. However it’s becoming difficult to accommodate them all with only two laptops,” continued Bharti.

Bharti is now planning to set up a computer lab in her center commencing with ten computers/Laptops and proper modem and backup system. The entire cost of the set up will be INR 2,00,000.

“It’s the first time that we are raising funds for any of our projects and any help will be appreciated. One can donate any amount starting from 10 rupees,” said Bharti, “ People can also donate any spare laptop or computer in a workable condition,” urged Bharti.
