Pragati Education Project- It’s an initiative of a few like-minded people coming together to make a difference to the underprivileged children in and around Borivali and Mira Bhyander district.

Our vision is to provide quality education that empowers the underprivileged and nurture responsible citizens. “Educating today for a better tomorrow “

We launched the Pragati Education Project in Dec 2021 in a government aided Marathi medium school of 160 students. When we set out, we had zero funds, over the days we received funds from a company and few others Individual donors supported along the way.

When we assessed the students, we saw the need to teach them to read and spell using phonics. We were able to teach songs in English about being thankful, good manners etc. Pragati provided the Readers, books for writing, workbooks and stationery for each student.

The children are learning to use their reading and thinking skills to match the words to the pictures, match the rhyming words and circle the words as the teacher calls. They like these activities with words and pictures which they get to color.
Teachers are helping the weaker students and giving them individual attention. It is good to see these students work hard and catch up with the other students.

It has been a laborious but a very fulfilling years for us at Pragati and the students' appetite for learning motivates us to keep going. We have all together 5 teachers now in the Pragati, and we have been teaching in a total of 5 schools in and around Mira Road, Bhayander& Borivali impacting over 1000 underprivileged students.

Assistant Commissioner of Education for Mira Bhayander has requested us to replicate our teaching model in 36 schools. We request you to join hands with us and support us so we can educate many more children in English for better tomorrow.
