In response to the immediate need to withdraw 22 children from the government school we are sponsoring, Aasraa trust has set up it’s  HAVEN. These children have decided to study further and harder; it is amazing the drive, dedication and maturity they have shown. Most are children in classes 9-11, staying in education beyond the limits of RTE in Guru Nanak and St. Agnes; few who exhibited the focus and drive to apply themselves to working hard and earning day boarding sponsorships in Olympus High.
In a week we found a house to rent, furnished and staffed it, and moved the children in… It is our boldest move so far. The children love it. They have settled in and are thriving. They have clean clothes, good food, proper tutorials, transport to school and space to flourish.
