Welcome to  Pratham BC Foundation's  Page

First most, to help needy children.  In India, Pratham can educate a poor illiterate child to read, write and count in 3 months for $15Cnd. Where can you get the satisfaction of helping educate a child so he or she can get out of the vicious poverty cycle for so little. Pratham's admin cost is less than 5%. Pratham's model is cost effective, and addresses the root problem. By 2010, we want every child in school and learning well.

Vancouver Volunteers started Pratham BC Foundation in 2005, and after seeing first hand some of the Pratham programs in Varodara, Bangalore & Mysore in place,  we can say this is a very solid and worthy seva project.

Doing whatever it takes to help educate poor children, so their dreams can become reality. Won't you help - please make the difference in a child's life. Visit Pratham BC Foundation's site www.pratham.ca to find out more.
