APPEAL FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR ADULT LITERACY – RS. 275 PER ADULT
Dear Friend,
India, a land of vibrant diversity, grapples with a significant challenge: adult illiteracy. There are 18.2 crore non literate adults in India. The highest of anywhere in the world!
The Rotary Club of Bombay is conducting a pioneering initiative that hopes to eradicate adult illiteracy and promote adult education across India. We aim to make adults functionally literate using the Each One Teach Many model.
The cost of making an adult functionally literate is INR 275 per person only. This includes the Primer Kit (NCERTapproved) consisting of various books and flash cards, stationary, final exam facilitation costs, graduation certificates and administration costs.
The Adult Literacy Program is intended to promote and strengthen education of non-literate adults with an aim to help learners achieve functional literacy over a period of 3 months. Among other things, Learners acquire a vocabulary of around 700 key words, enough for day to-day needs such as reading destination signs on buses, filling in deposit and withdrawal slips in Banks, and newspaper headlines, besides being able to learn simple arithmetic adequate to maintain household and other accounts.
Completion of our Adult Literacy Program results in confidence, employment, upliftment for family and society as a whole, improved political representation, smaller families, poverty reduction and so much more!I
In January 2024, Rotary Club of Bombay hosted our very first Golf Fundraiser for this cause and we raised over INR 1 Crore thanks to our amazing patrons for helping us change the world.
Boosted by the stupendous success of the previous Golf Fundraiser, we are back with the second edition of our golfing tournament which is bigger, grander and spread over two editions in two different cities over two days – Anand Rathi Wealth Golf Classic 2025 in Pune on 11th January, 2025 and Phillip Capital Golf Challenge 2025 in Mumbai on 12th January, 2025.
I invite you to support the cause of Adult Literacy in any of the following ways:
1. Sponsoring the Golf Fundraiser
2. Giving an advertisement for the Souvenir to be published
3. Donation in multiples of Rs. 27,500 (Min. 100 beneficiaries)
4. Registering as a participant to play Golf It is my humble appeal to you to join us in making a difference. Every contribution, big or small, will have a profound impact on the lives of countless individuals.
