Books and Dreams Campaign - Planning and Expenses
The Problem: A Struggle to Learn
According to a recent report by the West Bengal State Statistical Office (2022), around 34% of school-going children in semi-urban areas of Kolkata, such as Sonarpur, Barrackpore, Barasat, and Howrah, come from families living below the poverty line. These families, surviving on meager incomes, often prioritize basic needs like food and shelter, leaving little or nothing for educational materials.
A survey conducted by the Kolkata Urban Resource Center (2023) reveals alarming figures:
-
42% of students in semi-urban regions have to borrow stationery items from peers.
-
31% drop out of school because their families cannot afford essentials like notebooks and writing instruments.
-
Around 50% of the students are unable to perform well academically due to a lack of proper educational materials, leading to low self-esteem and discouragement.
For these children, not having access to simple items like notebooks, pens, pencils, and other stationery often results in low academic performance, absenteeism, and eventual dropout.
The Importance of Rs. 550
Imagine what Rs. 550 can do. This small amount can equip a child with the essential tools to actively participate in school, stay engaged, and focus on their learning. Here’s how your contribution will be utilized:
-
Notebooks (5)
-
Pens (5)
-
Pencils (10)
-
Erasers & Sharpeners (2)
-
Geometry Box (1)
-
School Bag (1)
For just ₹550, you can sponsor a complete set of school supplies for one child, providing them with the basic tools to learn effectively for his/her academics.

The IMPACT of your Donation
By donating Rs. 550 for one child, you’re doing more than just providing stationery; you’re offering hope and opportunity to children who have the potential to achieve great things if only given the right resources. Here’s how your contribution can create a real impact:
-
Reduction in School Dropout Rates: Providing educational materials will reduce financial pressure on families, allowing children to continue their education without interruption.
-
Improved Academic Performance: With the right tools, students can fully participate in classroom activities, complete their homework, and improve their academic performance.
-
Boost in Confidence and Motivation: Owning their own school supplies instills a sense of pride and motivation in children, encouraging them to stay in school and strive for success.
-
Supporting Girls’ Education: In many low-income families, girls are the first to drop out when resources are scarce. By ensuring access to stationery, we’re helping to bridge the gender gap in education.
