Running for Education #India

• 5K:- Run 3.1 Miles
• 1 Mile:- Run 1 Mile

In the 1990s, half of the world’s illiterate children were in India.

We created Pratham to change that. We believe education is the fundamental right of every child and no child should be deprived of this basic right simply because he or she does not have access to it or does not have the resourcesto realize his or her dreams.

Pratham means "first" in Sanskrit.

We are the first major organization to achieve lasting, wide-scale success in educating India’s youth. Our mission is to improve the quality of education in India and to ensure that all children in India are not only attending but also thriving in school. Using very low-cost and scalable methods, Pratham works in collaboration with the government, local communities, parents, teachers and volunteers across the country to achieve its mission.

We’ve reached over a million children in India.

Since our beginnings in the slums of Mumbai in 1994, we’ve become the largest non-governmental organization working to provide quality education to rural and urban children throughout India. Today, Pratham’s programs—including pre-schools, community libraries and remedial learning programs—reach millions of children every year.

All proceeds from the event will go to the Partham USA Dallas-Fort Worth Chapter.
